HOW TO DO THINGS WITH SHAKESPEARE

"This is a companion to Shakespeare with a difference. Vive la diff rance "
DAVID BEVINGTON, UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO

"Doing things with literature: scholarly articles are not the only way to go. Aristotle uses a lecture, Horace a letter, Sidney a mock oration. Laurie Maguire and the contributors to this book engage in a genial conversation that invites students in. Like all good conversations, this one admits first-person candor, keeps things lively by changing the subject five times, welcomes disagreements, and waits for what the reader-listener is going to do in response."
BRUCE SMITH, UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, LOS ANGELES
