English Lit Grad School Standard,

This review is from: Discovering Shakespeare: A New Guide to the Plays (Hardcover)
If you need a quick and dirty, but highly authoritative low-down on Shakespeare, this book by a traditionally revered Shake academic literary critic is for you.John Russell Brown is Prof Emeritus on Theatre/Drama and English Language/Literature. Everyone who studies Shakespeare has read some reference to him or one of his articles. He's old-school so you won't be deluged w/ deconstructionalist or other literary criticism arguments and terms. So, in this sense ANYBODY will understand this book, even if they aren't a navel-gazing graduate student. Like any good Prof of Drama he throws in several chapters about acting and interpreting the play from an actor's point of view. |
