Download or read book Twentieth Century Interpretations of Twelfth Night written by Walter N. King and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Variously described by critics as a vindication of romance, a comedy of humors, and a 'poem of escape,' Twelfth Night may well be Shakespeare's crowing achievement among his early comedies. The essays in this book provide a wide-ranging perspective on its delightful but puzzling plot, its masks and conflicts, its relationship to other works in Shakespeare's canon, and the mood and tone of its marvelous language. Including articles by such scholars as Clifford Leech, John Hollander, C.L. Barber, and Joseph H. Summers, this volume offers a fresh appraisal of a play one critic has called 'the most delightful, harmonious and accomplished of Shakespeare's romantic comedies.'" -Publisher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1985. In this revisionist history of comic characterization, Karen Newman argues that, contrary to received opinion, Shakespeare was not the first comic dramatist to create self-conscious characters who seem 'lifelike' or 'realistic'.
