Azda na nijakého zo svojich hrdinov nenaložil Shakespespeare toľko utrpenia ako na kráľa Leara, ktorý – podobne ako kráľ zo slovenskej ľudovej rozprávky Soľ nad zlato – zavrhol svoju najmladšiu dcéru, hoci ho mala najradšej, a kruto sa sklamal v dvoch starších. Všetkých nás čaká posledný účet – každý z nás sa môže uvidieť v mohutnom zrkadle tejto tragédie. William Shakespeare (1564 – 1616) nebol len veľký dramatik – bude sa o ňom vždy hovoriť aj ako o najväčšom básnikovi divadla.
The second edition of King Henry V with a new introductory section by Andrew Gurr.
'Shakespearotik' nennt der amerikanische Literaturwissenschaftler Gary Taylor in seiner kultur- und sozialgeschichtlichen Studie die Bemühungen ungezählter Forschergenerationen, der geradezu proteischen Wandlungsfähigkeit ihres Protagonisten nachzuspüren. Diese Wirkungsgeschichte durch vier Jahrhunderte zeigt zugleich, wie sich die 'Shakespeare-Industrie' in einem geschlossenen Kreislauf am Leben erhält: "Am 16. April 1616 hörte (Shakespeare) auf, sich selbst zu erfinden... Seitdem sind wir es, die ihn täglich neu erfinden."
Discusses changing interpretations of Shakespeare and his plays through the centuries, arguing that claims of his uniqueness reflect the characteristics of particular eras and critics more than Shakespeare.
