Will In The World : How Shakespeare Became Shakespeare
Stephen Greenblatt (Author)
The theatre for which Shakespeare wrote and acted was a cut-throat commercial entertainment industry. Yet his plays were also intensely alert to the social and political realities of their times. This book sets out to recover the links between Shakespeare and his world and with them to construct a full and vital portrait of the man.
