Shakespeare
de David M. Bevington, David Bevington, Anne Marie Welsh, Michael Greenwald
"What makes Shakespeare great? Why do we still read and perform his works? In this introduction, David Bevington argues that Shakespeare continues to live among us today because his representations of the human condition are believable, endearing, and touchingly human. The book is structured around Shakespeare's arc of human life from infancy and childhood to adulthood, advancing age, and eventual death, as set out by Jaques in the 'Seven Ages of Man' speech from As You Like It."--BOOK JACKET.
