Description

Discover a ground-breaking reinterpretation of Shakespeare's most enigmatic play in this scholarly work by W R Elton. For centuries, critics have struggled to characterise Troilus and Cressida, often dismissing it as a 'problem play' marked by darkness and decadence. Elton's research challenges this established view by placing the work within the historical context of Inns of Court law-revels tradition, offering fresh insights into Shakespeare's theatrical intentions and the play's original performance context. This book provides theatre scholars, Shakespeare students and literary enthusiasts with a rigorous examination that reframes one of the playwright's most misunderstood works, moving beyond Victorian-era judgements to reveal new layers of meaning and purpose in the text.

Key Features

W R Elton's research dismantles the 'problem play' designation that has long overshadowed Troilus and Cressida scholarship.

Places Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida within the historical context of Inns of Court law-revels tradition for deeper understanding.

Published by Routledge, this ground-breaking study challenges centuries of critical interpretation with original scholarly analysis.

Essential reading for theatre scholars, Shakespeare specialists and anyone seeking to understand this complex and mischaracterised play.
