First published in 1961. This study analyses Shakespeare's
treatment of the universal themes of Beauty, Love and Time. He
compares Shakespeare with other great poets and sonnet writers -
Pindar, Horace and Ovid, with Petrarch, Tasso and Ronsart, with
Shakespeare's own English predecessors and contemporaries, notably
Spenser, Daniel and Drayton and with John Donne. By discussing
their resemblances and differences, a not altogether orthodox
picture of Shakespeare's attitude to life is presented, which
suggests that he was not as phlegmatic and equable a person as
critics have often supposed.
