Reading Shakespeare through Philosophy

Über Reading Shakespeare through Philosophy

Reading Shakespeare through Philosophy advocates that the beauty of Shakespearean drama is inseparable from its philosophical power. Shakespeare¿s plays make demands on us even beyond our linguistic attention and historical empathy: they require thinking, and the concepts of philosophy can provide us with tools to aid us in that thinking. This volume examines how philosophy can help us to re-imagine Shakespeare¿s treatment of individuality, character, and destiny. It draws upon a variety of thinkers including Plato, Aristotle, Leibniz and Kant, in search of a revitalized philosophical criticism of Julius Caesar, Love¿s Labor¿s Lost, Timon of Athens, and Twelfth Night.
