SEE IMAGES. ## READ ON for more information and details.## ## Mrs. Andrew Lang's 1926 introduction to Shakespeare is a testament to Bard's enduring relevance and universal appeal. It invites us to approach Shakespeare's plays and sonnets not as relics of a bygone era but as living works of art that speak to us today. Her introduction remains a valuable guide for anyone seeking to understand and appreciate the genius of William Shakespeare. ## ## The Approach to Shakespeare: In the year 1926, Mrs Andrew Lang, a renowned literary critic of her time, penned an introduction to the works of William Shakespeare that would forever change the way we approach the Bard's plays and sonnets. Her insights, drawn from a deep understanding of literature and a keen sense of observation, provided a fresh perspective on Shakespeare's works.## ## The Timeless Appeal of Shakespeare. Mrs. Lang began her introduction by acknowledging the timeless appeal of Shakespeare's works. She noted that despite the passage of centuries, the themes explored by Shakespeare remain relevant. His plays and sonnets touch upon universal human experiences - love, ambition, jealousy, betrayal, and redemption - that resonate with readers and audiences across different cultures and eras. One of the key points in Mrs. Lang's introduction was her exploration of Shakespeare's language. She marvelled at the richness and depth of his vocabulary, the beauty of his metaphors, and the rhythm of his iambic pentameter. She emphasised that to appreciate Shakespeare truly, one must understand the meaning of his words and the music in his lines.## #### INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please Note. FREE SHIPPING IS UK ONLY.
