In the nineteenth century, Shakespeare achieved the status of
international pre-eminence that we recognise today. He and his
major characters were depicted in statues, paintings and
illustrations, and in Stratford-upon-Avon the house where he was
born was purchased for the nation and the first Memorial Theatre
was built. His words were read, quoted and declaimed in domestic
drawing rooms and theatres all around the world, as well as in the
works of the leading writers of the day, in intimate love letters
and in the pages of radical newspapers. As these new essays show,
his was a voice that resonated tellingly throughout the century's
cultural, political and literary arenas. The unique reference guide
also shows just how popular he was in a number of London theatres
and how integral a part he played in the publishing industry of the
day and in the burgeoning field of literary criticism.
