Shakespeare in the present

"Shakespeare in the Present is a collection of essays by Terence Hawkes, which engage with, explain and explore 'presentism'. Presentism is a critical manoeuvre that uses relevant aspects of the contemporary as a crucial trigger for its investigations. It deliberately begins with the material present and lets that set the interrogative agenda. This book suggests ways in which its principles may be applied to aspects of Shakespeare's plays."--Jacket
