Book Description
Marriage features to a greater or lesser extent in virtually every play Shakespeare wrote – as the festive end of comedy, as the link across the cycles of the history plays, as a marker of the difference between his own society and that depicted in the Roman plays, and, all too often, as the starting-point for the tragedies.
