5 out of 5 stars A good little introduction to Shakespeare.......2005-01-23

This work by a distinguished Shakespearean scholar aims to ' facilitate the reading of any Shakespare play. The author emphasizes throughout the critical importance of seeing the plays performed and contends that reading alone will not give the full and true Shakespeare. He focuses on three works, Henry IV , Measure for Measure, and King Lear. He speaks about the structure, the narrative element of the work, the performance text and written text, the poetic qualities, dramatic forms , word and character. He concludes with a chapter outlining various critical approaches. And provides an index for further reading.
A good introductory guide.
