Shakespeare and the Founders of Liberty in America is a book written by Charles Mills Gayley. The book explores the influence of William Shakespeare’s works on the founding of the United States of America and the development of American democracy. Gayley argues that the Founding Fathers were heavily influenced by Shakespeare’s plays, particularly his exploration of themes such as political power, justice, and the rule of law. The book also examines the ways in which Shakespeare’s works were used in the political discourse of the time, with figures such as Thomas Jefferson and John Adams quoting from his plays in their speeches and writings. Gayley’s book provides a unique perspective on the relationship between literature and politics, and offers a fascinating insight into the intellectual and cultural history of the United States.1917.
