How to Study a Shakespeare Play

Palgrave Study Guides: Literature

by John Peck, John Peck

This book - for a decade the most highly regarded general introduction to Shakespeare - offers students a clear and practical method of approaching a Shakespeare play. This major new edition has been thoroughly revised and expanded to include five new chapters that illustrate the nature and impact of the new approaches to Shakespeare that have swept through literary studies in recent years: structuralism, poststructuralism, deconstruction, feminism, New Historicism and Cultural Materialism.

Mildly helpful. But hyper focuses on certain plays rather than supplying generic info to help study.
