William Shakespeare: King Lear by Susan Bruce
Nearly three centuries of Lear criticism provide insight into the play's merit and its place within Shakespeare's work and the canon of English literature. Highlights include excerpts from the neoclassical and Romantic receptions of King Lear -- material from John Dryden, Samuel Johnson, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and Victor Hugo -- and a discussion of recent trends in criticism of the play.
Susan Bruce teaches at the University of Keele, England.
