Book Description
A.C.Bradley's Shakespearean Tragedy, first published in 1904, ranks as one of the greatest works of Shakespearean criticism of all time. In his ten lectures, Bradley has provided a study of the four great tragedies - Hamlet, Othello, King Lear and Macbeth - which reveals a deep understanding of Shakespearean thought and art. This centenary edition features a new Introduction by Robert Shaughnessy which places Bradley's work in the critical, intellectual and cultural context of its time. Shaughnessy summarises the content and argumentative thrust of the book, outlines the critical debates and counter-arguments that have followed in the wake of its publication and, most importantly, prompts readers to engage with Bradley's work itself.

Book Description
Hamlet may be the greatest tragedy ever written. It is certainly the best-known tragedy today. Lines from this play continue to be used in everyday speech, from Hamlet's own soliloquy about death («To be or not to be..."), to affirmations of life («To thine own self be true"), to the skeptical ("There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy"). The plot itself has been copied and reused hundreds of times since Shakespeare first wrote the play at the turn of the 17th century. It is not an exaggeration to say that this is the most important piece of English language literature ever written.For Shakespearean tragedy, the language and plot are fairly easy to follow. Hamlet has a suspicion that his uncle has killed his father and married his mother in order to become king. Hamlet feels the need to avenge his father, but he has no proof of the intrigue, relying on hearsay and the words of a ghost that may or may not have been real. Hamlet wavers on his decision to kill his uncle the king, and through his indecision causes his own, as well as many other tragic deaths.Although many scholars today find other Shakespeare works to be superior, in particular King Lear or The Tempest, Hamlet remains the Shakespeare to read and to know. There is no other way to get at the heart of English-language culture than through careful reading of the Bard's most famous work.
