Recenzii

"For those working on Shakespeare in the nineteenth century, this collection will be an important resource. The play posed questions with which these critics were warily reluctant to engage, and the tactics they deployed to domesticate the drama are very revealing. Via misconceived idealism, sentimentality, and their yearning for it to be something other than what it was, Measure for Measure had in effect turned into Mariana." -New Studies in the Shakespearian Heroine
