Shakespeare at Peace
English
By (author): John S. Garrison Kyle Pivetti
In the current climate of global military conflict and terrorism, Shakespeare at Peace offers new readings of Shakespeares plays, illuminating a discourse of peace previously shadowed by war and violence. Using contemporary examples such as speeches, popular music, and science fiction adaptations of the plays, Shakespeare at Peace reads Shakespeares work to illuminate current debates and rhetoric around conflict and peace. In this challenging and evocative book, Garrison and Pivetti re-frame Shakespeare as a proponent of peace, rather than war, and suggest new ways of exploring the vitality of Shakespeares work for politics today.
