Shakespeare At Work, 1592-1603 - 1592-1603

Informationen zum Autor G. B. Harrison Klappentext Shakespeare against the background of his times, his world of the theatre and his dramatic development through the last years of Elizabeth's reign. Originally published in 1933 and republished in 1958, this great work is an imagining, in plain narrative, of the life of Shakespeare backed with evidence of the history of the stage.
