Think on my words
You speak a language that I understand not. Hermione s words to Leontes in The
Winter s Tale are likely to ring true with many people reading or watching
Shakespeare s plays today. For decades, people have been studying Shakespeare s
life and times, and in recent years there has been a renewed surge of interest into
aspects of his language. So how can we better understand Shakespeare? How did he
manipulate language to produce such an unrivalled body of work, which has
enthralled generations both as theatre and as literature? David Crystal addresses
these and many other questions in this lively and original introduction to
Shakespeare s language. Covering in turn the five main dimensions of language
structure
-
writing style, pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, and conversational
style
-
the book shows how examining these linguistic nuts and bolts can help us
achieve a greater appreciation of Shakespeare s linguistic creativity.
David crystal is one of the world s foremost authorities on language. He is
author of the hugely successful Cambridge Encyclopedia of Language
(1987,-
second edition
1997),
Cambridge Encyclopedia of the English Language
[1995;
second edition
2003),
and English as a Global Language
(1997;
second edition
2003).
An internationally renowned writer, journal editor, lecturer and broadcaster, he
received an
OBE
in
1995
for his services to the study and teaching of the English
language. His previous work on Shakespeare includes two books written with his
actor son, Ben, Shakespeare s Words
(2002)
and The Shakespeare Miscellany
(2005),
essay contributions to Shakespeare: An Oxford Guide and The Oxford
Shakespeare, Pronouncing Shakespeare
¡2005),
and regular essays for The Times
Educational Supplement and the theatre magazine, Around the Globe.
