Shakespeare on Love & Lust

A leading Shakespearean authority untangles the legendary writer's witty, bawdy, and ambiguous treatment of sex, love, and desire. Delves deeply into Shakespeare's rhetorical and thematic development of this largest of subjects to reveal what makes his work resonate with contemporary audiences. Focuses primarily on desire between young lovers, but also explores themes of love in marriage and in same-sex pairings. Explores how courtship is woven into the basic plot formula of the comedies, and examines love in the tragedies and the enemies of love.
