Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The chapters in Shakespeare and the Body Politic examine the tensions between the passion and ambition of individuals and the limits of the political communities that encompass and inform them. Shakespeare provides his audiences and readers both timely and timeless political lessons through his diverse portraits of the body politic in his plays and poetry-from ancient city-states of Greece and Rome to the early modern cities and kingdoms of his own time.
