Shakespeare's Fugitive Politics

Description:

This volume establishes Shakespeare's plays as some of the period's most speculative political literature. It promotes a new understanding of 'fugitive democracy', and establishes the presence of a form of alternative politics in early modern drama, articulated through the countours of theories of sovereignty. It provides new readings of major plays: Coriolanus, King John, Henry V, Titus Andronicus and Julius Caesar.
