Bøker av Simon Palfrey

One of the most memorable Shakespearean characters is Edgar in King Lear. The author asks us to rethink all those received ideas - and thus to experience King Lear as never before. He argues that Edgar is Shakespeare's most radical experiment in characterization - and also his most exhaustive model of both human and theatrical possibility.

Simon Palfrey shows us the passion and the cruelty which lie beneath the surface of Shakespeare’s famous play – and how everything is driven and dominated by the character of Juliet.
