The Late Plays: Critical Opinion in the Eighteenth and

A reader s guide
Shakespeare s Late Plays
Pericles, Cymbeline, The Winter s Tale, The Tempest
Shakespeare s late plays are a mixed bag with a common theme:
from the fiendishly jealous Leontes to the saintly Pericles; from the
ineffectual Cymbeline to the omnipotent
Prospero;
from the sprites
and goblins of The Tempest to the famous bear of The Winter s Tale,
the characters have excited wonder and contempt while the range of
incident is almost irresponsibly extravagant. Was Shakespeare losing
his grip, or his interest, or both? Was he striking out in some bold new
theatrical direction?
This Guide provides a critical survey of the major debates and issues
surrounding the late plays, from the earliest published accounts to
the present day. Nicholas Potter offers a clear guiding narrative and
an exploration of literary history, focusing on how criticism of these
remarkable works, and attempts to make sense of them, have
developed over the years.
Nicholas Potter is Principal Lecturer in English at Swansea
Metropolitan University. His previous publications include volumes
on Othello and Antony and Cleopatra in the Readers Guides to
Essential Criticism series.
