  That Shakespeare thematized time thoroughly, almost obsessively, in his plays is well established: time is, among other things, a 'devourer' ( Love's Labour's Lost ), one who can untie knots ( Twelfth Night ), or, perhaps most famously, simply 'out of joint' ( Hamlet ). This book offers an investigation of time in Shakespearean theatre.
