Exploring the intersection of Renaissance drama and modern technology, Arthur F. Kinney analyzes Shakespeare's use of mirrors, maps, clocks, and books as networks of meaning in his plays. By integrating hypertext and cognitive theory, Kinney reveals how these elements not only enrich individual works but also create interconnected themes throughout Shakespeare's oeuvre. His insights suggest that Shakespeare's compositional methods foreshadow today's information technology, offering a fresh perspective on the relevance of classical literature in the digital age.
