"Shakespeare Left and Right" brings together critics, strikingly different in their politics and methodologies, who are acutely aware of the import of politics on literary practice and theory. Should, for example, feminist criticism be subjected to a critique by voices it construes as hostile to its political agenda? Is it possible to present a critique of feminist criticism without implicitly impeding its politics? And, in the light of recent political events should the Right pronounce the demise of Marxism as a social science and interpretive tool? The essays in "Shakespeare Left and Right" present a tug of war about ideology, acted out over the body of Shakespeare. Part One focuses on the challenge thrown down by Richard Levin's widely discussed `Feminist Thematics and Shakespearean Tragedy'. Part Two considers these issues in relation to critical practice and the reading of specific plays. This book should be of interest to students and lecturers in Shakespeare studies.
