Shakespeare and Masculinity by Smith
'Oxford Shakespeare Topics' (General Editors Peter Holland and Stanley Wells) provide students, teachers, and interested readers with short books on important aspects of Shakespeare criticism and scholarship, including some general anthologies relating to Shakespeare.
This is a brilliant, brave, scholarly book with innumerable insights into Shakespearean texts * Modern Language Review *
The jewel of this collection is Bruce RSmith's Shakespeare and Masculinity, which is not only a model of what such an introduction to Shakespeare should be, but an outstanding study of the problems of gender analysis. This is a very good book * Ruth Morse, Times Literary Supplement *
Oxford University Press offer a mix of engagingly written introductions to a variety of Topics intended largely for undergraduates. Each author has clearly been reading and listening to the most recent scholarship, but they wear their learning lightly * Ruth Morse, Times Literary Supplement *
