AC Bradley ha messo Shakespeare sulla mappa per generazioni di lettori e studenti per i quali altrimenti le opere teatrali non sarebbero potute diventare "reali" affatto, scrive John Bayley nella sua prefazione a questa edizione di Shakespearean Tragedy: Lectures on Hamlet, Othello, King Lear and Macbeth. Avvicinandosi alle tragedie come a un dramma, interrogandosi sui loro personaggi come avrebbe potuto interrogarsi sulle persone nei romanzi o nella vita, Bradley è uno dei più liberatori nella linea di illustri critici di Shakespeare. Il suo metodo critico acuto ma non dogmatico e quasi colloquiale è rimasto, nonostante le fluttuazioni della moda, duraturo e influente. Perché, come osserva John Bayley, queste lezioni ci danno un vero ed esaltante senso delle "tragedie che si uniscono alla vita, a tutte le nostre vite; conducendoci in una prospettiva di possibilità che si estendono avanti e indietro nel tempo e nella nostra totale consapevolezza delle cose.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. A.C. Bradley put Shakespeare on the map for generations of readers and students for whom the plays might not otherwise have become "real" at all' writes John Bayley in his foreword to this edition of Shakespearean Tragedy: Lectures on Hamlet, Othello, King Lear and Macbeth. Approaching the tragedies as drama, wondering about their characters as he might have wondered about people in novels or in life, Bradley is one of the most liberating in the line of distinguished Shakespeare critics. His acute yet undogmatic and almost conversational critical method hasdespite fluctuations in fashionremained enduringly popular and influential. For, as John Bayley observes, these lectures give us a true and exhilarating sense of 'the tragedies joining up with life, with all our lives; leading us into a perspective of possibilities that stretch forward and back in time, and in our total awareness of things. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR001238223
