Although his experience of producing the plays never lets him lose sight of the fact that they were written to be performed before and audience that expected to be enteratined. the author argues nevertheless that they are more successfully didactic than the comedies of other Elizabetheans. This book. like its predecessor. has a threeford appeal: it is a valuable introduction to the subject. intelligible to the reader who wishes to understand Shakespeare's work better. and invaluable to scholars and teachers.ISBN: 0853230641.
