by Dr Hugh Mackay (Author)
This companion brings Renaissance drama to life by considering such classic plays as Hamlet, Othello and Dr Faustus from the perspective of contemporary theatre-goers. Discussions of Shakespeare's masterpieces are accompanied by examinations of the work of lesser known playwrights and commentators, while chapters on "Madness and Subjectivity", "Rhetoric and Performance" and "Nation-Building" provide a variety of key critical perspectives.
