| Zusammenfassung: | "Shakespeare's Tragedies: Violation and Identity traces the linked themes of violation and identity through seven Shakespearean tragedies, beginning with the rape of Lavinia in Titus Andronicus. The implications of this event - its physical and moral shock, the way it puts Lavinia's identity, and the whole notion of identity, into crisis - reverberate through Shakespeare's later tragedies. Through close, theatrically informed readings of Titus Andronicus, Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, Troilus and Cressida, Othello, King Lear and Macbeth, the book traces the way acts of violence provoke questions about the identities of the victims, the perpetrators, and the acts themselves. It shows that violation can be involved in the most innocent-looking acts, that words can be weapons, that interpretation itself can be a form of damage."--BOOK JACKET. |

Shakespeare s Tragedies:
Violation and Identity
traces the linked themes of violation and identity
through seven Shakespearean tragedies, beginning with
the rape of Lavinia in Titus Andronicus. The implications
of this event
Lavinia s identity, and the whole notion of identity, into
crisis
Through close, theatrically informed readings of Titus
Andronicus, Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, Troilus and Cressida,
Othello, King Lear, and Macbeth, the book traces the way acts
of violence provoke questions about the identities of the
victims, the perpetrators, and the acts themselves. It shows
that violation can be involved in the most innocent-looking
acts, that words can be weapons, that interpretation itself
can be a form of damage. Written in a clear, accessible
style, this study provokes questions about the human
implications of Shakespearean tragedy.
Alexander Leggatt is Professor of English at University
College, University of Toronto. He has published extensively
on English drama, mostly on the work of Shakespeare and
his contemporaries, and has lectured on Shakespeare at
conferences throughout the world. His books include
Shakespeare s Comedy of Love
