Description
In 1623, Ben Jonson touted Shakespeare as the soul of his age; three centuries later, a newspaper advertisement uses Shakespeare's reputation to market beer. Styled as "a collector's history", THE SHAKESPEARE TRADE offers an absorbing account of the role that the figure of Shakespeare and Elizabethan England play in 20th-century British and American cultures.
