Shakespeare's Sceptered Isle: Finding English National Identity in the Plays
Brian Carroll
Explores Shakespeare’s history and Roman plays to find the raw materials of English national consciousness and identity. The book argues that Shakespeare’s histories furnished modern England with a curriculum for constructing a national identity, a confidence of language and culture, and a new medium to communicate this negotiated identity.
