Sobre IBD

Wiegandt offers new interpretations of Shakespeare’s most contentiously debated plays by examining the playwright’s use of two mechanisms: the crowd and rumour. The book’s focus on crowd and rumour not only provides fresh insights on the central problems of some of the plays, but also offers an alternative to the dominant tradition of celebrating Shakespeare as the origin of modern individualism.

  • Crowd and Rumour in Shakespeare
    Kai Wiegandt
    In this study, the author offers new interpretations of Shakespeare’s works in the context of two major contemporary notions of collectivity: the crowd and rumour.

Shakespeare dramatizes these mechanisms, relating th...
