Shakespeare's Wordcraft

Meer over het boek

"For readers who have a passion for Shakespeare, writers who wish to learn from his remarkable craft, actors, directors, and others who want to know what's behind the immortal Bard's glorious words, author Scott Kaiser takes a comprehensive look at Shakespeare's stellar use of language devices throughout his plays, devices he used to ink memorable lines." "In a clear, accessible, non-academic style - using plain terms, modern quotes, and several thousand examples - Mr. Kaiser deftly reveals how Shakespeare's lasting lines were not accidental or coincidental, but designed and crafted by a master of the word to delight the ear, stimulate the mind, and stir the heart."--Jacket
