"Shakespeare and the Figures of Speech"
In the Author's Words
In "Shakespeare and the Figures of Speech," I continue my research and writing in
Shakespeare and rhetoric. In it, I provide the background to Shakespeare's education
in the language arts, especially style and figuration, and the influence that education
had on him as a literary artist. The article and the encyclopedia are written for
both the scholar and the common reader.
