| Summary: | Analyses how far Shakespeare succeeds in reconciling two polarised areas in the early modern period: sexual desire, or will, and idealised approaches to romantic loveEmphasizes cultural and semantic differences between Shakespeare's age and our own that further our understanding of his texts - in particular, the importance of the signifier 'will' in its secondary meaning of sexual driveExamines Shakespeare' sceptical approach to romantic conventions (neo-Platonic and Petrarchan) that bypass desireDiscusses how Shakespeare dramatizes different models of marriage in relation to love and sexual desire, and then assesses how far homoerotic attraction, same-sex bonds, and sexual desire within the family undermine heterosexual romantic partnerships Beginning with how the signifier 'will' operates in Shakespearean contexts, this book, unlike other studies, deals fully with how Shakespeare's plays treat the issue of rape and sexual coercion, and how far the plays reflect early modern views on the role of sex and love in marriage. It assesses in more detail than ever before the ways in which heterosexual love relationships in Shakespeare's plays are challenged by homoerotic attraction and same-sex friendships. Joan Lord Hall also explores in depth incestuous currents in the plays: the issue of sexual desire within the family. Referring to every play in the canon as well as to Shakespeare's narrative poems and several sonnets, she explores the dark side of 'will' (rape and sexual coercion) before analysing the playwright's critique of Petrarchan and Neo-Platonic conceptions of love that bypass desire. It also covers his sceptical approach to 'fancy' driven chiefly by visual attraction, presenting a comprehensive, fresh understanding of sexual desire and romantic love in Shakespeare |
