Macbeth: The State of Play: Arden Shakespeare The State of Play

Ann Thompson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 feb 2014
A "freeze frame" volume showcasing the range of current debate and ideas surrounding one of the most familiar of Shakespeare's tragedies. Each chapter has been carefully selected for its originality and relevance to the needs of students, teachers and researchers. Key themes and topics covered include:

The Text and its Status
History and Topicality
Critical Approaches and Close Reading
Adaptation and Afterlife

All the essays offer new perspectives and combine to give readers an up-to-date understanding of what's exciting and challenging about Macbeth. The approach based on an individual play, unlike that of topic-based series, reflects how Shakespeare is most commonly studied and taught.
