By exploring Shakespeare's engagements with the humanist traditions of early modern England and Europe, Rhodri Lewis reveals a \u003ci\u003eHamlet\u003c\/i\u003e unseen for centuries: an innovative, coherent, and exhilaratingly bleak tragedy in which the governing ideologies of Shakespeare's age are scrupulously upended. Recovering a work of far greater magnitude than the tragedy of a young man who cannot make up his mind, Lewis shows that in \u003ci\u003eHamlet\u003c\/i\u003e, as in \u003ci\u003eKing Lear\u003c\/i\u003e, Shakespeare confronts his audiences with a universe that received ideas are powerless to illuminate--and where everyone must find their own way through the dark.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rhodri Lewis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0691204519\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780691204512\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Princeton University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/14\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 392\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Rhodri Lewis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43991379214591,"sku":"9780691204512","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ad8129f6-344d-4e2a-930f-0be27c8779f2.jpg?v=1683309946","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hamlet-and-the-vision-of-rhodri-lewis-9780691204512","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
