Product Description
In the first full-length study of Shakespeare's Roman plays, Coppélia Kahn brings to these texts a startling, critical perspective that interrogates the gender ideologies lurking behind 'Roman virtue.'
Plays featured include: Titus Andronicus, Julius Caesar, Antony and Cleopatra, Coriolanus, and Cymbeline. Setting the Roman works in the dual context of the popular theatre and Renaissance humanism, the author identifies new sources which she analyzes from a historicized feminist perspective.
Roman Shakespeare is written in an accessible style and will appeal to scholars and students of Shakespeare, those interested in feminist theory, as well as classicists.
