First published in 1986. This collection of essays focuses on the
ways in which our society 'processes' Shakespeare and the purposes
for which this seems to be done. The case is made by examining the
work of four highly influential critics: A C Bradley, Walter
Raleigh, T S Eliot and John Dover Wilson. Terence Hawkes asks
whether, beyond the readings to which the plays may be subjected,
there lies any final, authoritative or essential meaning to which
we can ultimately turn, concluding that jazz music offers the most
fruitful model for twentieth-century criticism.
