Reviews

'In helping us learn to become attentive to how Shakespeare uses the complex relationships of you and thou in articulating a wide range of affects, Penelope Freedman deepens our engagement with his plays. Her study is a valuable aid on which directors and actors, and readers, too, can fruitfully call.' European Legacy '... a unique and provocative book.' Sixteenth Century Journal
