Description

Explore the relationship between contemporary thought and classical drama with Shakespeare in the Present. Published by Routledge as part of the Accents on Shakespeare series, this collection of essays by Terence Hawkes offers a deep look into the concept of presentism. Presentism acts as a method for investigation by using relevant aspects of the contemporary world to set an interrogative agenda. This book provides ways to apply these principles directly to the study of Shakespeare's plays. Hawkes focuses on how presentism impacts academic study, particularly through two main areas of impact. This text is an essential resource for students, scholars, and readers interested in how modern perspectives can change our understanding of historical literature. By starting with the material present, the essays help bridge the gap between the era of Shakespeare and the world we live in today.
