Description

In Shakespeare Beyond Science, Sky Gilbert looks at Shakespeare
in the context of the ‘style wars’ that obsessed the early modern
period, placing Shakespeare on the side of Lyly, Nashe, Sturm and
the Greek rhetorician Hermogenes, against the new forward-looking
more scientific approach to literature, as expressed by early modern
philosopher Petrus Ramus. In the end Shakespeare was poststructuralist,more concerned with form than content, and confident
of the dangerous magical power of words not only to persuade but to
construct our consciousness.
