This book is a study of the major figures in each of Shakespeare’s ten tragic plays. The author, himself a playwright, strives to bring out for the characters what actors designate as a «through line,» a consistent path of motivation. This approach and the accessible style make the book suitable for teachers and students of both literature and theater.
