English Tragedy before Shakespeare (Routledge Revivals): The Development of Dramatic SpeechRoutledge, 13. 5. 2013 - Počet stran: 306 First published in English in 1961, this reissue relates the problems of form and style to the development of dramatic speech in pre-Shakespearean tragedy. The work offers positive standards by which to assess the development of pre-Shakespearean drama and, by tracing certain characteristics in Elizabethan tragedy which were to have a bearing on Shakespeare’s dramatic technique, helps to illuminate the foundations on which Shakespeare built his dramatic oeuvre. |
