505 0 The tempest : the conundrum of man -- Romeo and Juliet :
the untimeliness of youth -- Coriolanus : the estrangement
of self -- Macbeth : the necessity of interpretation --
Richard III : the problem of fact -- The merchant of
Venice : the question of intention -- Othello : the
persistence of difference -- Henry V : the quest for
exemplarity -- Hamlet : the matter of character -- King
Lear : the dream of sublimity.
520 While bringing to the table an interesting theory that our
modern culture and the ideas beset by Shakespeare give
birth to one another in an endless cycle, Garber lays down
some fairly engaging commentary in Shakespeare and Modern
Culture. Covering 10 of Shakespeare's most important plays
(as if any of them were not important), including Othello,
Romeo and Juliet, MacBeth, among others. Her analysis of
the plays as well as her comparisons with today's cultural
hallmarks are for the most part explained in a straight-
forward and thorough manner.
