  • Book Description

    Stanley Wells is one of the best-known and most versatile of Shakespeare scholars. His new book considers how far sexual meaning in Shakespeare's writing is a matter of interpretation by actors, directors and critics. Tracing interpretations of Shakespearian bawdy and innuendo from the eighteenth-century to the present, Wells pays special attention to interpretations of A Midsummer Night's Dream, to the Sonnets and to homosexual relationships in the plays. His lively, provocative, and open-minded new book will appeal to a broad readership of students, theatregoers and Shakespeare lovers.
