 There is much detail in Shapiro's book which literary critics and cultural historians will find of value, but there is also some repetition, and a less than clear understanding of how that empirical detail may best be theorized. Nowhere is this more in evidence than in the final paragraph of the book where the periodic claims made throughout in favour of historical difference subside into a tired bardolatry.
First published in 1996, James Shapiro's pathbreaking analysis of the portrayal of Jews in Elizabethan England challenged readers to recognize the significance of Jewish questions in Shakespeare's day. From accounts of Christians masquerading as Jews to fantasies of settling foreign Jews in Ireland, Shapiro's work delves deeply into the cultural insecurities of Elizabethans while illuminating Shakespeare's portrayal of Shylock in The Merchant of Venice. In a new preface, Shapiro reflects upon what he has learned about intolerance since the first publication of Shakespeare and the Jews. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
