Arden Student Skills: Language and Writing volumes offer a new type
of study aid that combines lively critical insight with practical
guidance on the writing skills you need to develop in order to
engage fully with Shakespeare's texts. The books' core focus is on
language: both understanding and enjoying Shakespeare's complex
dramatic language and expanding your own critical vocabulary as you
respond to his plays. Each guide in the series will empower you to
read and write about Shakespeare with increased confidence and
enthusiasm. King Lear: Language and Writing reveals how the play's
elemental power springs from its language, which is at once simple,
relentless and resonant, as well as from its full-blown double plot
that multiplies unbearably both the follies and the pain of its
protagonists. Chapters explore the play's status as a tragedy, its
stagecraft, primary source material and both its textual and
theatre history. The 'Writing Matters' section at the end of each
chapter provides suggestions for activities that can further
enhance your understanding of the play. This is an indispensable
guide to Shakespeare's rich and complex dramatic language and will
improve and develop your critical writing skills.
