Speech and Performance in Shakespeare's Sonnets and Plays

Speech and Performance in Shakespeare's Sonnets and Plays by David Schalkwyk
English | 17 Oct. 2002 | ISBN: 0521811155 | 274 Pages | PDF | 1 MB

David Schalkwyk offers a sustained reading of Shakespeare's sonnets in relation to his plays. He argues that the language of the sonnets is primarily performative rather than descriptive, and bases this distinction on the philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein and J. L. Austin.
