Summary
Shakespeare's contributions to stage and language are unequaled, audiences left breathless for the past four centuries, his artistry as evident in moments of insensate rage as it is in moments of heartbreaking tenderness. But beyond his astonishing feats of language and dramatic impact, Shakespeare also left us a legacy in the explorations of suffering and transgression offered in the six great mature tragedies-Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, Macbeth, Antony and Cleopatra, and Coriolanus-that make up the astonishing body of work he produced from 1600 to 1608. This series of 24 lectures takes you deep within each play to observe Shakespeare's protagonists struggling to make choices in the face of competing social, moral, and psychological pressures
