Shakespeare and Modernity: Early Modern to Millennium (Accents on Shakespeare)by Hugh Grady
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Shakespeare has variously been seen as the last great exponent of pre-modern Western culture, a crucial inaugurator of modernity, and a prophet of postmodernity.
This exciting collection of essays traces the changing reception of Shakespeare over the past four hundred years. Along the way it provides fascinating insights into:
* the nature of individuality, identity, and the self
* the inter-relations of the rise of capitalism, nation-states, and secular culture
* the sexual division of labor and gender identity
* the beginnings of Western colonialism, racism, and anti-Semitism.
This fresh look at Shakespeare's plays is an important contribution to the revival of the idea of 'modernity' and how we periodise ourselves, and Shakespeare, at the beginning of a new millennium. Synopsis:These essays trace the changing reception of Shakespeare over the past 400 years. It provides insights into: the nature of individuality, identity, and the self; the sexual division of labour and gender identity; and the beginnings of Western colonialism, racism and anti-Semitism.
