Shakespeare and Psychoanalysis: Method in the Madness

This edited volume presents a collection of new essays on Shakespeare and Psychoanalysis from leading figures in the field, making a strong statement about the ongoing relevance of contemporary psychoanalytic theory and method to the study of literary texts in general, and to Shakespeare's poems and plays in particular. Drawing from a vibrant and diverse dialogue with psychoanalysis, this collection manages to interrogate Shakespeare's treatment of gender, social customs, history, trauma, and the construction of the self.
