Sommario/riassunto |
|
First published in 1957. This edition reprints the second edition of 1962.<BR><BR>The originality, vitality and variety of Shakespeare's comedies do not suggest a writer at ease with a formula which works to his own satisfaction and the pleasure of his audience; against first impressions they suggest an artist seeking to express an idea which is always eluding a completely developed presentation. The second edition of this book contains an extensive new chapter on <EM>Pericles, Cymbeline, The Winter's Tale</EM> and <EM>The Tempest.</EM> |
