Shakespearean Negotiations

The Circulation of Social Energy in Renaissance England
Stephen Greenblatt
Stephen Greenblatt has been at the center of a major shift in literary interpretation toward a critical method that situates cultural creation in history. Shakespearean Negotiations is a sustained and powerful exemplification of this innovative method, offering a new way of understanding the power of Shakespeare's achievement and, beyond this, an original analysis of cultural process.
Stephen Greenblatt is The Class of 1932 Professor of English Literature at the University of California, Berkeley.
