An NYRB Classics Original Shakespeare, Nietzsche wrote, was Montaigne's best reader--a typically brilliant Nietzschean insight, capturing the intimate relationship between Montaigne's ever-changing record of the self and Shakespeare's kaleidoscopic register of human character. And there is no doubt that Shakespeare read Montaigne--though how extensively remains a matter of debate--and that the translation he read him in was that of John Florio, a fascinating polymath, man-about-town, and dazzlingly inventive writer himself. Florio's Montaigne is in fact one of the masterpieces of English prose, with a stylistic range and felicity and passages of deep lingering music that make it comparable to Sir Robert Burton's Anatomy of Melancholy and the works of Sir Thomas Browne. This new edition of this seminal work, edited by Stephen Greenblatt and Peter G. Platt, features an adroitly modernized text, an essay in which Greenblatt discusses both the resemblances and real tensions between Montaigne's and Shakespeare's visions of the world, and Platt's introduction to the life and times of the extraordinary Florio. Altogether, this book provides a remarkable new experience of not just two but three great writers who ushered in the modern world.

Shakespeares teater er renæssancen i dramatisk anretning, den personlige relation mellem to kraftcentre: individet og Gud. Mennesket er ikke i sidste ende et afmægtigt væsen, der er givet en blind skæbne til pris. Det er tværtimod et selvmægtigt væsen, der grebet af en lidenskab træffer sit valg og måske derved bliver skyldigt og følgelig må bære sin deraf bestemte skæbne. Men det er samtidig stillet over for en guddommelig magt, der kan kaldes mange ting: guderne, Gud, Naturen, men som hver gang fungerer i rollen som det overordnede forsyn, der griber ind. Og det kan alt sammen skildres i de mest forskelligartede nuancer, i komediernes lyse eller i tragediernes dystre stemning. Johannes Sløk (1916-2001) var en dansk teolog, filosof, idehistoriker og debattør. Han blev ansat som professor ved Det Teologiske Fakultet ved Aarhus Universitet i 1959 og blev sidenhen en af hovedkræfterne bag oprettelsen af Institut for Idehistorie ved Aarhus Universitet. Johannes Sløk var som filosof stærkt inspireret af Søren Kierkegaard og har skrevet flere bøger om hans tanker og eksistentialisme generelt. Gennem sit mangeårige akademiske virke nåede Johannes Sløk at skrive mere end 60 bøger om filosofi, teologi og idehistorie.

Among Shakespeare's many biographers none brings to his subject more passion and feeling for the creative act than Anthony Burgess. He breathes life into Shakespeare the man and invigorates his times. His portrait of the age builds upon an almost personal tenderness for Shakespeare and his contemporaries (especially Ben Jonson), and on a profound sense of literary and theatrical history. Anthony Burgess's well-known delight in language infuses his own writing about Shakespeare's works. And in the verve of his biography he conveys the energy of the Elizabethan age.

Hamlet er bygget op omkring en kriminalintrige, og stykkets centrale plot er kriminalromanens – blot henlagt til royale omgivelser: En konge er blevet myrdet - og hans søn påtager sig rollen som detektiv for at finde ud af, hvem der har gjort det. Men Hamlet er andet og langt mere end en krimi. Parallelt med historien om opklaringen af kongemordet afdækkes nemlig et intrigant magtspil, hvor både mænd og kvinder, levende og døde, løgn og forstillelse, venskab og ægteskab, ydelser og modydelser, overvågning og mistillid væves ind i hinanden og gør alle personerne til brikker i et spil, ingen helt kan overskue. – Måske med undtagelse af læseren? Men Hamlet er ikke for fastholdere. Mange tolkningsmuligheder byder sig til: Er Hamlet den noble prins i en korrupt verden? Er han selv den dødsinficerede kilde til råddenskaben i Helsingør? - Eller er han og alle de andre ofre for en verden, der ikke levner plads til et godt og meningsfuldt liv?

A BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week 'Excellent.' New Statesman 'Outstanding.' Irish Times 'Enthralling.' Guardian 'Shapiro at his best.' Daily Telegraph From the author of 1599, a fresh perspective on the history of the United States - and a timely reminder of Shakespeare's indelible influence. Shakespeare's position as England's national poet is unquestionable. But as James Shapiro illuminates in this revelatory new history, Shakespeare has long held an essential place in American culture too. Why, though, would a proudly independent republic embrace England's greatest writer? Especially when his works enact so many of America's darkest nightmares: interracial marriage, cross-dressing, same-sex love, tyranny and assassination? Shapiro leads us to fascinating answers and startling stories.
