Zusatztext Faith in Shakespeare can be defined as the true categorization of faith in Shakespeare's plays, which begins with acknowledging them as illusions and mockeries at first; then follows the understanding of these illusions as based on the human mind, which makes them not sacraments but humane reflections of human perception. McCoy discusses faith in Shakespeare in a compelling style and brilliantly awakens our faith. Informationen zum Autor Richard C. McCoy is Distinguished Professor of English at Queens College and the Graduate Center at the City University of New York. Klappentext Informed by Coleridge's "poetic faith," Faith in Shakespeare ruminates on what it means to believe in the Shakespeare's plays, exploring how their plots can be both preposterous and gripping, and how their characters seem more substantial and enduring than the people surrounding us in the theater.
