Description: Seeing Shakespeares Style by Douglas Bruster Seeing Shakespeares Style offers new ways for readers to perceive Shakespeare and, by extension, literary texts generally. FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Seeing Shakespeares Style offers new ways for readers to perceive Shakespeare and, by extension, literary texts generally. Organized as a series of studies of Shakespeares plays and poems, poetry, and prose, it looks at the inner functioning of language and form in works from all phases of this writers career. Because the very concept of literary style has dropped out of so many of our conversations about writing, we need new ways to understand how words, phrases, speeches, and genres in literature work. Responding to this need, this book shows how visual representations of writing can lead to a deeper understanding of languages textures and effects. Starting with chapters that a beginning reader of Shakespeare can benefit from, its second half puts these tools to use in more in-depth examinations of Shakespeares language and style. Although focused on Shakespeares works, and the works of his contemporaries, this book provides tools for all readers of literature by defining style as material, graphic, and shaped by the various media in which all writers work. Author Biography Douglas Bruster is Mody C. Boatright Regents Professor of English and American Literature and Distinguished Teaching Professor at the University of Texas at Austin.
