Frances Yates (1899-1981) was an English historian renowned for her
extensive writings on Western Hermeticism. Originally published in
1936, this early text by Yates takes as its starting point the
question of whether the character of Holofernes in Love's Labour's
Lost was intended by Shakespeare to be a satirical portrait of his
contemporary John Florio. The elucidation of this problem leads on
to a broader discussion regarding the play as a whole and its
contextual significance. Appendices and a detailed introduction are
also included. This is a highly readable book that will be of value
to anyone with an interest in Florio and Shakespeare criticism.
