Provides the first systematic and comprehensive account of the conventions governing soliloquies in Western drama from ancient times to the twentieth century. Over the course of theatrical history, there have been several kinds of soliloquies. Shakespeare's soliloquies are not only the most interesting and the most famous, but also the most misunderstood, and several chapters examine them in detail. The present study is based on a painstaking analysis of the actual practices of dramatists from each age of theatrical history. This investigation has uncovered evidence that refutes long-standing commonplaces about soliloquies in general, about Shakespeare's soliloquies in particular, and especially about the to be, or not to be episode. 'Shakespeare and the history of Soliloquies' casts new lights on historical changes in the artistic representation of human beings and, because representations cannot be entirely disentangled from perception, on historical changes in the ways human beings have perceived theselves.

A Shakespeare Treasury gathers together in one volume 52 of Shakespeare's greatest and most memorable speeches. Chosen and presented in the order in which they were written, they suggest the progression of Shakespeare's writing style and reveal the changing taste of his audiences over a twenty-five year period (1588-1613). Each selection has an introductory paragraph telling the reader about the character who is speaking, what the situation is and who is listening. By reading one speech a week the reader can become acquainted with all these soliloquies and monologues in a single, enriching year. As Mrs. Pogue points out in her Introduction, "Shakespeare holds a critical place in our history and culture. To know his characters is to learn about ourselves. Untangling the language of Shakespeare's monologues reveals breathtaking depths of meaning encoded in his extraordinary metaphors, similes and other figures of speech. Never has there been so much help in understanding, or so much reward in comprehending, the treasure that is Shakespeare."
