~ENG~A characterological study of the standards of measure and the nature of fame of the renowned figures in Antony and Cleopatra, juxtaposed to the origins and nature of Shakespeare’s fame.
Shakespeare, Antony and Cleopatra, and the Nature of Fame is a characterological study offering new perspectives on Antony and Cleopatra, the most ambiguous of Shakespeare’s plays. It also offers new insights about the origins and nature of Shakespeare’s imperishable fame. Wide-ranging in its concerns, this monograph promises to make an essential difference in the way scholars view characterizations, fame, Shakespeare’s reputation, and the eminence of the celebrated figures of the play.
