Böcker av A. D. Nuttall

In pursuit of a common-sense argument about realism, this work discusses English 18th-century and French neo-classical conceptions of realism, and considers "Julius Caesar", "Coriolanus", "The Merchant of Venice", "Othello", and both parts of "King Henry IV" as a feat of mimesis, with emphasis on Shakespeare's perception of society and culture.

Deals with the fundamental subject of the practice of thinking about universals as though they were concrete things. This book looks at a study that takes the form of an inquiry into certain conceptual questions raised, in the first place, by the allegorical critics, and, in the second place, by allegorical and quasi-allegorical poetry in general.

Presents a study of Shakespeare's intellectual preoccupations. This book offers guidance to Shakespeare's plays and sheds light on questions that engrossed Shakespeare from his early plays to the late romances: the nature of motive, cause, personal identity and relation, the proper status of imagination, and ethics and subjectivity.
