OXFORD SHAKESPEARE TOPICS General Editors: Peter Holland and
Stanley Wells Oxford Shakespeare Topics provide students and
teachers with short books on important aspects of Shakespeare
criticism and scholarship. Each book is written by an authority in
its field, and combines accessible style with original discussion
of its subject. Shakespeare and Biography is not a new biography of
Shakespeare. Instead, it is a study of what biographers have said
about Shakespeare, from the first formal biography in the early
18th century by Nicholas Rowe to Stephen Greenblatt, James Shapiro,
Jonathan Bate, Germaine Greer, Katherine Duncan-Jones, Park Honan,
Rene Weis, and others who have written recent biographical accounts
of England's greatest writer. The emphasis is on what sorts of
issues these biographers have found especially interesting in
relation to sex and gender, politics, religion, pessimism,
misanthropy, jealousy, aging, family relationships, the end of a
career, the end of life. How has Shakespeare's contemplation of
these issues changed and grown, and in what ways do those changes
reflect new cultural developments in our world as it continues to
reinterpret Shakespeare?
