A.C.Bradley's Shakespearean Tragedy, first published in 1904, ranks as one of the greatest works of Shakespearean criticism of all time. In his ten lectures, Bradley has provided a study of the four great tragedies - Hamlet, Othello, King Lear and Macbeth - which reveals a deep understanding of Shakespearean thought and artThis centenary edition features a new Introduction by Robert Shaughnessy which places Bradley's work in the critical, intellectual and cultural context of its time. Shaughnessy summarises the content and argumentative thrust of the book, outlines the critical debates and counter-arguments that have followed in the wake of its publication and, most importantly, prompts readers to engage with Bradley's work itself.… (altro)
Very hard to overstate how much this book helped turn Shakespeare and his works into a vital part of my life. From the Introduction to the last page, one of the books you must own to help you on your journey into the world of the plays. ( )

The question we are to consider in this lecture may be stated in a variety of ways. We may put it thus: What is the substance of a Shakespearean tragedy, taken in abstraction both from its form and from the differences in point of substance between one tragedy and another?

LADY MACBETH [is] The most commanding and perhaps the most awe-inspiring figure that Shakespeare drew. Her greatness lies almost wholly in courage and force of will. She is, up to her light, a perfect wife. She gives her husband the best she can; has his own interests always at heart; never recriminates; cares for him (`you lack sleep') and has faith in his abilities. Never betrays him: however appalling she may be, she is sublime.

For the moment, too, all the language of poetry--even of Macbeth's poetry--seems to be touched with unreality, and these brief toneless sentences seem the only voice of truth.
