Excerpt from Questions on Shakespeare, Vol. 2
The pupil, or his teacher for him, should select a few of the topics for special study. Probably the most valuable exercises for the general student who has a good degree of maturity are the general questions and the character-sketches. Some of these general questions require considerable work in order to answer them fully. The mature student will probably use the questions upon individual acts and scenes principally in order to sharpen his attention and prevent him from reading the text carelessly or mechanically. He will answer very few of these special questions in detail.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. The historical plays of the English Bard are analyzed here, focusing on Henry VI trilogy and Richard III, with the author spotlighting the shift from history to chronicle history. The author suggests that this genre change reflects the move away from a singular protagonist, typical of tragedy, towards an emphasis on the chorus and multiple plot lines. This book also examines language use by Shakespeare as it pertains to subject and class distinctions, as well as a historical analysis of the era chronicled in the plays, which adds depth to the reader's understanding. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
