The Age of Shakespeare — www.greenwood.com

Imprint: Greenwood Press

What better way to learn about daily life in the Elizabethan world than through Shakespeare? And what better way to learn about Shakespeare than through studying the culture so central to his works? Each book in this series examines a topic fundamental to the Elizabethan world, such as the role of women, the importance of religion, and the nature of family life. After overviewing the topic in Elizabethan culture, the book examines how it figures in Shakespeare's plays, and how productions from the 16th century to the present have explored his handling of the matter. High school students writing about Shakespeare will appreciate these books for their illumination of his works, while history students will welcome them as guides to the Renaissance era.
