Shakespeare's Neighbors focuses on what lay next door to
Shakespeare- the theoretical context that, while partially lost on
us, was quite likely to inform the perception that Shakespeare's
contemporaries (his "neighbors") had of his works. In this series
of alternative readings, the primacy of the literary text is set
against the backdrop of unexpected or largely ignored theories
whose enormous diffusion renders them inescapable terms of
comparison. Rocco Coronato advocates the likely as a viable
backdrop to literary analysis. The inference has it that the
presence of such widely disseminated theories may allow for the
study of the literary works through their own codes and imagery,
without implying a rigidly ideological transmission between social
and literary domains. While written with literary criticism in
mind, Coronato manages to avoid convoluted jargon, striving in the
process to translate the terms of otherwise esoteric discourses
into a generally accessible language form, for the benefit of a
non-specialist audience as well.
