{"product_id":"shakespeare-the-last-plays-9780582275737","title":"Shakespeare: The Last Plays","description":"This is the first collection of criticism on Shakespeare's romances to register the impact of modern literary theory on interpretations of these plays. Kiernan Ryan brings together the most important recent essays on \u003ci\u003ePericles, Cymbeline, The Winter's Tale\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Tempest\u003c\/i\u003e, the greatest of the 'last plays', staging a dynamic debate between feminist, poststructuralist, psycho-analytic and new historicist views of the masterpieces Shakespeare wrote at the close of his career. The book aims not only to anthologise accounts of the last plays by leading Shakespearean critics, including Stephen Greenblatt, Janet Adelman, Leah Marcus, Howard Felperin and Steven Mullaney, but also to dramatise what is at stake in the choice of a particular critical approach. It allows the student to compare the strengths and limitations of a deconstructive and a feminist reading of the same romance, or to test the plausibility of one psychoanalytic angle on the last plays against another. A comprehensive, fully annotated bibliography provides an unrivalled guide to further reading on all four plays.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kiernan Ryan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/18\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.74lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.48h x 5.51w x 0.62d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780582275737\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKiernan Ryan is Professor of English Language and Literature at Royal Holloway, University of London.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43195260141683,"sku":"9.78058E+12","price":99.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_f685bb53-7ad7-4114-9600-0a306ed19b71.jpg?v=1752584597","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/shakespeare-the-last-plays-9780582275737","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
