Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature of epic poetry through the lens of Shakespeare's work, arguing that the development of the heroic character has rendered the epic form obsolete. The author traces the evolution of epic poetry from Homer's time to the present day, showing how the shift from outward to inward manifestations of heroism has made the traditional epic model less effective in representing the complexities of modern human experience. The book analyzes Shakespeare's plays, particularly his history plays, as examples of this shift, arguing that they embody a new kind of heroism that is more psychological and introspective than physical and external. The author concludes that while epic poetry in its traditional form may be a thing of the past, the heroic spirit continues to find expression in new and evolving literary forms. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330490242_0
