Geraldo U. de Sousa’s interdisciplinary study explores the representation, perception, and function of the house, home, household, and family life in Shakespeare’s great tragedies. Concentrating on King Lear, Hamlet, Othello, and Macbeth, and drawing on approaches from the fields of anthropology, art history, architecture, social and theater history, phenomenology and gender studies, this book analyzes how Shakespeare evokes domestic space to convey interiority, reflect on the habits of the mind, interrogate everyday life, and register elements of the tragic journey.
