Wonder in Shakespeare
Cohen, Adam Max.

Wonder in Shakespeare[electronic resource] /Adam Max Cohen. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2012. - 1 online resource (1 v.)

Includes bibliographical references.

Wonder, amazement, and surprise: beginning a stunning story -- Resurrections of the living and the dead: natural and spiritual bodies and souls -- "Die to live": various forms of empathetic wonder -- The metaphorical use of the prodigious birth tradition -- More of a prodigy than a prophecy -- Wonder, awe, and admiration: Shakespeare's cabinets of curiosity -- Transalpine wonders: Shakespeare's marvelous aesthetics.

Wonder is a highly ambivalent word and idea which can denote both woe, horror, or terror on one hand and delight, jubilation, or ecstasy on the other. In the first part of this book, Adam Max Cohen embraces the many meanings of wonder in order to challenge the generic divides between comedy, tragedy, history, and romance to suggest that Shakespeare's primary goal in crafting each of his playworlds was the evocation of one or more varieties of wonder. In the second part of this book, seven contributors respond to Cohen's exploration and pay homage to his scholarly legacy.
