Reviews

"In this highly original discussion, J. F. Bernard provides a comprehensive analysis of Shakespeare's distinctive understanding of melancholia. Working with a range of classical and early modern sources, he reveals a complex tension in the comedies between melancholy as disease and the melancholy temperament as a powerful resource for creativity.-- ""Michael D. Bristol, McGill University"""
