Shakespeare and Cognition challenges orthodox approaches to
Shakespeare by using recent psychological findings about human
decision-making to analyse the unique characters that populate his
plays. It aims to find a way to reconnect readers and watchers of
Shakespeare's plays to the fundamental questions that first
animated them. Why does Othello succumb so easily to Iago's
manipulations? Why does Anne allow herself to be wooed by Richard
III, the man who killed her husband and father? Why does Macbeth go
from being a seemingly reasonable man to a cold-blooded killer? Why
does Hamlet take so long to kill Claudius? This book aims to answer
these questions from a fresh perspective.
