In this book, renowned Renaissance drama critic Arthur F. Kinney
argues that Shakespeare's method of composing plays through
networks of meanings can be seen as a harbinger of today's
information technology. Drawing upon hypertext and cognitive
theory--areas that have for some time promised to take on more
importance in the sphere of Shakespeare Studies--as well as the
central metaphor of the Routledge collection The Renaissance
Computer, Kinney looks in detail at four objects/images in
Shakespeare's plays--mirrors, maps, clocks, and books--and explores
the ways in which they make up networks of meaning within single
plays and across the dramatist's body of work that anticipate in
some ways the networks of meaning or "information" now possible in
the computer age.
