Elizabethan Psychology And Shakespeare's Plays - Paperback

Elizabethan Psychology and Shakespeare's Plays is a book written by Ruth Leila Anderson that explores the psychological themes and concepts present in Shakespeare's plays, particularly those written during the Elizabethan era. The book delves into the various psychological theories and beliefs of the time, such as humoral theory, astrology, and the influence of the supernatural, and how they are reflected in the characters and themes of Shakespeare's works. Anderson also examines the ways in which Shakespeare's plays challenged and subverted these prevailing psychological beliefs, and how his characters often embodied complex and contradictory psychological states. The book provides a fascinating insight into the cultural and psychological context of Shakespeare's works, as well as a deeper understanding of the enduring appeal and relevance of his plays.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
