Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book is a thorough examination and fresh interpretation of Shakespeare's presentation of the final throes of republican Rome's decay and demise and the rise of Caesarism. Speech by speech and line by line, it brings out Shakespeare's understanding of the political substance and the historical significance of republican Rome's collapse. |
