| Summary |
"In this Very Short Introduction Germaine Greer explores Shakespeare as a thinker, unravelling the methods he used to dramatize moral and intellectual issues in a way that made his audience dazzlingly aware of an imaginative dimension to daily life. She argues that as long as Shakespeare's work remains essential to the English-speaking world, it will retain the values which make it unique."--inside front jacket |
