Recenzii
[A] significant new contribution ...that push[es] the parameters of how we engage with the most revered writer in the English language...timely and erudite.
As de Grazia's study demonstrates so compellingly, when life writing shifted from the anecdotal to the documentary, we lost something of our appreciation of Shakespeare as critics tried to force square pegs into round holes.
De Grazia's Shakespeare without a Life is unafraid of taking a bold stance .... Her subtle analyses highlight the differences between modern readers' obsession with biography and the lenses through which Shakespeare's contemporaries and immediate successors viewed him.
Elegant ... what de Grazia does with familiar material is striking.
This beautifully written book weaves together a set of absorbing stories which together produce a sharp-edged argument ... The final chapter on the Sonnets ...urges new ways of thinking about Shakespeare and his work... A pleasure to read and a book to rethink often.
Lapidary... elegant...striking... De Grazia's book amplifies her work on the historical specificity of ideas and assumptions that become invisible through familiarity.
As de Grazia's study demonstrates so compellingly, when life writing shifted from the anecdotal to the documentary, we lost something of our appreciation of Shakespeare... With the kind of breath-taking clarity that makes one chastise oneself for not having noticed before what she points out, de Grazia shrewdly observes that... 'the works are imagined surviving without the individuating particulars of their author's life.'
Compelling ... Would the lack of a life provide an enticing reading strategy? ... Shakespeare Without a Life is not just the title of de Grazia's book but a possible hermeneutic.
