Shakespeare's Memory Theatre - Recollection, Properties, and Character - Lina Perkins Wilder - Paperback Bog - Cambridge University Press - 2014 -
Brand: Cambridge University Press
Description
Lina Wilder argues that the 'places' and 'objects' of the memory arts inform Shakespeare's conception of theatre, and vice versa. Ranging from Yorick's skull to Desdemona's handkerchief, Shakespeare's mnemonic objects help audiences to recall, or imagine, staged and unstaged pasts.
