In this book, Nicolas Tredell:
- Introduces essential concepts, themes and debates.
- Relates Shakespeare's tragedies to fi elds of study including psychoanalysis, gender, race, ecology and philosophy.
- Summarises major critical texts from Dryden and Dr Johnson to Janet Adelman and Julia Reinhard Lupton, and covers influential critical movements such as New Criticism, New Historicism and poststructuralism.
