Philosophical Shakespeares

<p>Shakespeare continues to articulate the central problems of our intellectual inheritance. The plays of a Renaissance playwright still seem to be fundamental to our understanding and experience of modernity.<br>Key philosophical questions concerning value meaning and justice continue to resonate in Shakespeare's work. In the course of rethinking these issues <em>Philosophical Shakespeares</em> actively encourages the growing dissolution of boundaries between literature and philosophy. The approach throughout is interdisciplinary and ranges from problem-centred readings of particular plays to more general elaborations of the significance of Shakespeare in relation to individual thinkers or philosophical traditions.</p>
