Description
 
Shakespeare
The Invention of the Human
by Harold Bloom

... before Shakespeare, there was characterization...

...after Shakespeare, there was character...

In his magnum opus, Harold Bloom guides readers through each of the Shakespeare's plays, describing--through profiles of such characters as

  • Cleopatra,
  • Hamlet,
  • Falstaff, and
  • Iago

    How the Bard invented human personality.

    A landmark contribution, Shakespeare: The Invention of the Human is a book that is certain to be celebrated and read for many years to come.

    It is Bloom's passionate and convincing analysis of the way in which Shakespeare not merely represented human nature as we know it today, but actually created it...

    men and women with highly individual personalities--Hamlet, Falstaff, Iago, Cleopatra, Macbeth, Rosalind, and Lear, among them.

    In making his argument, Bloom leads us through a brilliant and comprehensive reading of every one of Shakespeare's plays.

    An excellent book!
