Shakespeare: Seven Tragedies Revisited : The Dramatist's Manipulation of Response

This text, first published in 1976, has been extensively revised in this new edition and includes new chapters on "Henry V", "As You Like It" and on "the study of the audience and the study of response". Both readers and actors/theatre-goers should find that it opens up new ways of looking at the plays and at the mechanisms that underpin some of the most magical moments in Shakespeare's plays.
