内容説明

This book seeks to come to terms with Shakespeare's susceptibility to interpretation while respecting the primacy of his creative presence. It sees Shakespeare the theatre-poet as making theatre not only by outlining an imaginary world but by providing guidelines for its enactment and reception, implying in each of his plays a distinctive rapport between the playwright, the players and the playgoers. These guidelines may be discerned through study of the range and limits of the options that a given text affords. The book studies a variety of plays in this way, especially "Hamlet", "Othello", "King Lear" and "Macbeth". By doing so it seeks to provide an aesthetic for Shakespeare's theatre-poetry, one that includes the author along with the actors and the audience in the event that occurs when a play is performed.
