EBOOK Narcissism and Suicide in Shakespeare and his Contemporaries
Opis
Through close analysis of key Shakespearean texts and discussion of Renaissance revisions of Ovid, classical attitudes to suicide, early-modern optic theory, and narcissism in the epyllia tradition, this book illustrates how the seemingly extreme figures of the narcissist and self-slaughterer are indicative of early-modern attitudes to interiority.
