Romance and Reformation: The Erasmian Spirit of Shakespeare's Measure for MeasureUniversity of Delaware Press, 2000 - Počet stran: 189 It examines an assumption central to Shakespeare's inherited humanist tradition: that literature, and particularly drama, is capable of promoting a better society and it finds Shakespeare interrogating this assumption, asking whether drama that has been fashioned according to reformist principles of the great humanist educator Erasmus can, after all, achieve the remediating effects it seeks. |
