"Shakspeare's Himself Again; Or the Language of the Poet Asserted" by Andrew Becket offers a detailed exploration of Shakespeare's unique use of language. This meticulous study, first published in the late 18th century, defends Shakespeare's linguistic choices against contemporary criticisms, asserting the poet's deliberate and artful construction of verse. Becket delves into specific passages and phrases, providing interpretations and justifications that illuminate Shakespeare's genius.
This work is invaluable for scholars of Shakespeare, students of linguistics, and anyone interested in the history of literary criticism. Becket's passionate defense of Shakespeare's language provides insight into the Bard's enduring appeal and the evolution of English literature.
