Publisher's Synopsis

Studies the relationship between Shakespeare's drama and the Western culture of violence, arguing that the plays reflect the role of violence in maintaining a patriarchal political system, which absorbs, naturalizes, and legitimates violence to control its subjects, especially the weak, such as women and the poor.
