Title
Shakespeare's Comic Changes: The TimeLapse Metaphor As Plot Device,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Product Description Perhaps the central question about Shakespeares comedies is whether they form a single group we can meaningfully call Shakespearean comedy. The problem arises in locating a unifying principle that is not so broad as to lack interpretive value. In Shakespeares Comic Changes, Roger L. Cox argues that the thread connecting almost all of Shakespeares comedies is a plot in which character change is presented metaphorically instead of realistically. Violating classical dramatic rules about the consistency of character, Shakespeare offers character changes that are improbable and unrealistic. Shakespeares chief means for representing character change is what Cox calls the timelapse metaphor. Two sharply contrasting views of a given character emerge in timeorder: first, a fairly realistic view of the character as flawed and in conflict with society; then, an idealized view of the same character reformed. Cox argues that, by allowing us to see the plays as a cohesive whole, the timelapse metaphor thus becomes the very basis for the plot. Review With the tools provided, we are shown how to construct feminist, psychoanalytical, historical, etc., versions of Shakespeare, and, in the process, to construct ourselves.
