First published in 1972. The imagery of field sports - of hawking,
hunting, shooting and fishing - and the associated imagery of
warfare are a striking feature in Shakespeare's plays. The Living
Image examines the nature of this imagery, considering it first in
the light of the practices and techniques of Elizabethan field
sports and weaponry and then its broader metaphoric significance in
relation to the themes of the plays. The contemporary associations
of the imagery - the inferences of female sexuality and waywardness
from hawking imagery, for example, and the ideals of nobility and
courage attached to images of hunting and war are all discussed.
