Renaissance
want to build a just society you must begin
with the facts of human nature. This book
argues that the idea of a universal human
nature was as important to Shakespeare as
it was to every other Renaissance writer. In
doing so it questions the central principle
of postmodern Shakespeare criticism.
Postmodernists insist that the notion of a
defining human essence was alien to
Shakespeare and his contemporaries; as
radical anti-essentialists, the Elizabethans
were, in effect, postmodernists before their
time. In challenging this claim,
Shakespeare s Humanism shows that for
Shakespeare, as for every other humanist
writer in this period, the key to all wise
action was the knowledge of our selves
and our human condition .
