Descriere

Shakespeare's Folktale Sources examines how Shakespeare adapted folktales for one or more plots in seven of his plays. When we acknowledge that Shakespeare constructed his plays from traditional stories with wide written and oral circulation, we can see how he used his folktale sources to engage his audience on common ground.
