内容简介

For more than 50 years, Harold Bloom has been an original mind and provocative presence on the international literary scene, and today he is America's most renowned literary scholar. Dramatists and Dramas presents the best of this award-winning critic's writings on the world's greatest dramatists and their classic plays. Coverage ranges from the ancient Greeks to the modern day, with a particular emphasis on Shakespeare, who remains "an unquestionable miracle" to Bloom and inspires some of his most profound writing. This invaluable collection also features Bloom's overview of the genre and his thoughts on its development, as well as genre-specific bibliographic information that encourages the reader to explore the topic further.
