Shakespeare’s Forgotten Allegory: Vice, Virtue, and Spoilt Children: Routledge Studies in Shakespeare
Autor Julian Realen Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 dec 2023
This evidence-based reappraisal of some of the most iconic works in Western literature suggests that a core element of their content has been ‘lost’ for centuries.
This text will appeal to anyone with an interest in late medieval and early modern drama, especially the works of Shakespeare; to those interested in the history of teaching and child-rearing; to anyone curious about the practical application of philosophy in society; to anyone that would like to know more about the crucial and defining period today known as the Renaissance, and how and why society was redesigned by those with influence; and to all those who would like to know more about how history, which though sometimes misplaced, continues to influenced our modern world.

PostgraduateRecenzii
"Shakespeare’s Forgotten Allegory reveals the importance and the evolution of the spoilt brat through 300 years of Renaissance drama. It identifies the moral paradigms that playwrights linked to the figure, and applies this insight to familiar characters with impressive results. His analysis of Sir Andrew Aguecheek is outstanding."
--Ursula Potter, Sydney University
"The prodigal son is a familiar paradigm, but I had never heard of the underlying idea of the cockered child before reading Julian Real’s original and careful book. He brings into creative focus a key cultural notion in Shakespeare’s world that we have forgotten."
--Emma Smith, University of Oxford
--Ursula Potter, Sydney University
