Shakespeare's Shakespeare: How the Plays Were Made

Description

In this work of scholarship and creativity, Meagher argues that Shakespeare has been misunderstood because of a failure to recognize his own directions as a playwright. Through an examination of several of his plays Meagher uncovers Shakespeare as artist, director, and actor.

John Meagher was Professor of English and Theology at St. Michael's College, University of Toronto, Canada.

With critical finesse and through balanced explanations ... Meagher demonstrates that what governed Shakespeare's aesthetics had nothing to do with the modern notion of unitary principles. * Memoria di Shakespeare *
