Great halls and hovels, dove-houses and sheepcotes, mountain cells
and seaside shelters--these are some of the spaces in which
Shakespearean characters gather to dwell, and to test their
connections with one another and their worlds. Julia Reinhard
Lupton enters Shakespeare's dwelling places in search of insights
into the most fundamental human problems. Focusing on five works
(Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, Pericles, Cymbeline, and The Winter's
Tale), Lupton remakes the concept of dwelling by drawing on a
variety of sources, including modern design theory, Renaissance
treatises on husbandry and housekeeping, and the philosophies of
Hannah Arendt and Martin Heidegger. The resulting synthesis not
only offers a new entry point into the contemporary study of
environments; it also shows how Shakespeare's works help us
continue to make sense of our primal creaturely need for shelter.
