What Shakespeares plays can teach us about modernday politicsWilliam Shakespeare understood power: what it is, how it works, how it is gained, and how it is lost.In The Hollow Crown, Eliot A. Cohen reveals how the battling princes of Henry IV and scheming senators of Julius Caesar can teach us to better understand power and politics today. The White House, after all, is a courtwith intrigue and conflict rivaling those on the Globes stageas is an army, a business, or a university. And each court is full of driven characters, in all their ambition, cruelty, and humanity. Henry Vs inspiring speeches reframe John F. Kennedys appeal, Richard IIIs wantonness illuminates Vladimir Putins brutality, and The Tempests grace offers a window into the presidency of George Washington.An original and incisive perspective, The Hollow Crown shows how Shakespeares works transform our understanding of the leaders who, for good or ill, make and rule our world.
