Shakespeare's Third Keyboard: The Significance of Rime in Shakespeare's Plays

Portada
University of Delaware Press, 2000 - 205 páginas
"This book springs from an unaccountable gap among the rows of "Shakespeare Studies" on bookshop and library shelves. Playgoers and readers with insatiable appetites for every kind of commentary on Shakespeare's work who discover some volumes devoted to his style may find a musical metaphor illuminating: that Shakespeare had three keyboards at his disposal. The first, blank verse, and the second, prose, have attracted some critical attention; but the third, his rime (as his contemporary printers spelled it), has been neglected. This study aims to fill that gap."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
