{"product_id":"speed-and-flight-in-shakespeare-matthew-steggle-9783030936563","title":"Speed and Flight in Shakespeare","description":"\u003cp\u003eShakespeare's plays are fascinated by the problems of speed and flight. They are repeatedly interested in humans, spirits, and objects that move very fast; become airborne; and in some cases even travel into space. In \u003ci\u003eSpeed and Flight in Shakespeare\u003c\/i\u003e, the first study of any kind on the subject, Steggle looks at how Shakespeare's language explores ideas of speed and flight, and what theatrical resources his plays use to represent these states. Shakespeare has, this book argues, an aesthetic of speed and flight. Featuring chapters on \u003ci\u003eThe Comedy of Errors, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Romeo and Juliet, Henry V, Macbeth\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Tempest\u003c\/i\u003e, this study opens up a new field around the 'historical phenomenology' of early modern speed. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew Steggle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030936562\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030936563\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/22\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.38d","brand":"Matthew Steggle","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43945962307839,"sku":"9783030936563","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_af333c80-cd43-4925-8316-776aa4df964c.jpg?v=1681510742","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/speed-and-flight-in-shakespeare-matthew-steggle-9783030936563","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
