Book Description

July 1999 Bloom's Reviews
William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream is ripe for critical analysis. Its complexities are extraordinary, since it involves four different levels of representation, which intermingle but never wholly fuse. This text offers numerous critical essays covering the play along with a brief biography of Shakespeare.

This series is edited by Harold Bloom, Sterling Professor of the Humanities, Yale University; Henry W. and Albert A. Berg Professor of English, New York University Graduate School. These texts are the ideal aid for all students of literature, presenting concise, easy-to-understand biographical, critical, and bibliographical information on a specific literary work. Also provided are multiple sources for book reports and term papers with a wealth of information on literary works, authors, and major characters.

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 10 Up. These series entries, edited by the indefatigable Yale professor, are basically hybrid combinations of "Cliffs Notes" and Book Review Digest. They maintain the high standard Bloom has set for this publisher's other critical anthologies, but are aimed at a different audience, apparently students in a big hurry. Each title includes a selection of very short critical excerpts, an author biography, summary/thematic analysis, list of characters, bibliography, and index of themes. The blurb promises "a single source for footnoting essays and research papers" and these handbooks are cunningly designed to do just that. Big, fat juicy quotes practically jump off the page. So if your students write papers on Jane Eyre and Midsummer Night's Dream, buy these books.?Kathy Fritts, Jesuit High School, Portland, OR
