She also delves into the historical context of Shakespeare's plays, exploring how societal attitudes towards women influenced the portrayal of female characters on stage. The Women in Shakespeare's Plays is a must-read for anyone interested in the works of Shakespeare, gender studies, or the history of women in literature.A Critical Study From The Dramatic And The Psychological Points Of View And In Relation To The Development Of Shakespeare's Art.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
