Shakespeare the Playwright: A Companion to the Complete Tragedies, Histories, Comedies, and RomancesBloomsbury Academic, 12. 3. 1991 - 888 strán (strany) A useful guide for the general reader, as well as high school and undergraduate students, to Shakespeare's 37 plays. After a brief introduction outlining Shakespeare's life and career, Cahn carefully guides the reader through each play in turn, from first scene to last, using a mixture of quotation, paraphrase, and critical comment. His style is accessible and unpretentious, and his insights into the `psychological consistency' of Shakespeare's characters--the main focus of the commentary--are stimulating and sometimes provocative.
