Description:
Paperback / softback. New. Heather James shows how Shakespeare's use of Virgil, Ovid and other classical sources forms part of a larger attempt to find historical legitimacy for Britain as a realm asserting its status as an empire. She goes on to distinguish Shakespeare's deployment of the myth from 'official' Tudor and Stuart ideology.

Shakespeare's Troy: Drama, Politics, and the Translation of Empire Paperback - 2007
by Heather James; Stephen Orgel (Editor); Anne Barton (Editor)
First line
At least since the appearance of the First Folio, when Ben Jonson paid tribute to Shakespeare as the "Soule of the Age" and a poet "not of an age, but for all time," it has seemed incumbent upon critics to champion Shakespeare for his ability either to represent history or to rise above it.
