Recenzii

This volume provides "all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know" about the challenging experience of King Lear. The coverage is compendious, the research up-to-date, and the essays rich with fresh insights.
This comprehensive approach makes King Lear: A Critical Guide a valuable resource for advanced undergraduates and those who teach them, as it suggests the multitude of reaction to King Lear over time, while also showing what can still be done within this vast tradition.
