Description

Examines the essential relationship between vision, knowledge, and memory in Renaissance models of cognition as seen in Shakespeare's plays. This book explores five key objects/images in Shakespeare's plays - crowns, bells, rings, graves and ghosts - that are central to the imagination of both the playwright and the playgoers.
