Synopsis

The ten lectures presented here were given consecutively at the British Academy's annual Shakespeare Lecture over the years 1980-89. This lecture series has been going since 1911 with this volume being the fourth 'collection' of essays. As the papers are grouped by the years given there is no volume theme as such, apart from that of Shakespeare himself.

About this title

Synopsis:

For over 80 years the British Academy Shakespeare lectures have provided a forum for the leading Shakespeare critics of the day. The lectures delivered in the 1980s addressed subjects of topical interest (Shakespeares's audience and its imaginative participation in the play, Shakespeare as reviser of his own work, plays of disputed authorship), as well as examining major plays at length. All the pieces will appeal to general readers and theatre-goers, as well as Shakespeare specialists.
