Shakespeare's Consuls, Cardinals, and Kings: The Real History Behind the Plays

Shakespeare's Consuls, Cardinals, and Kings: The Real History Behind the Plays

by Dick Riley (Author)

Synopsis

William Shakespeare's plays are a guide to how individuals react to the competing pressures of statecraft and personal ambition, fear and love. This book not only considers these "cases" in the plays themselves, but also in the sources available to Shakespeare - the techniques Shakespeare used to transform history into drama.
