　　In The Shakespeare Wars, Ron Rosenbaum gives readers an

unforgettable way of rethinking the greatest works of the human

imagination. As he did in his groundbreaking Explaining Hitler, he

shakes up much that we thought we understood about a vital subject

and renews our sense of excitement and urgency. He gives us a

Shakespeare book like no other. Rather than raking over worn-out

fragments of biography, Rosenbaum focuses on cutting-edge

controversies about the true source of Shakespeare’s enchantment

and illumination–the astonishing language itself. How best to

unlock the secrets of its spell?

With quicksilver wit and provocative insight, Rosenbaum takes

readers into the midst of fierce battles among the most brilliant

Shakespearean scholars and directors over just how to delve deeper

into the Shakespearean experience–deeper into the mind of

Shakespeare.

Was Shakespeare the one-draft wonder of Shakespeare in Love? Or

was he rather–as an embattled faction of textual scholars now

argues–a different kind of writer entirely: a conscientious reviser

of his greatest plays? Must we then revise our way of reading,

staging, and interpreting such works as Hamlet and King Lear?

Rosenbaum pursues key partisans in these debates from the high

tables of Oxford to a Krispy Kreme doughnut shop in a strip mall in

the Deep South. He makes ostensibly arcane textual scholarship

intensely seductive–and sometimes even explicitly sexual. At an

academic “Pleasure Seminar” in Bermuda, for instance, he examines

one scholar’s quest to find an orgasm in Romeo and Juliet.

Rosenbaum shows us great directors as Shakespearean scholars in

their own right: We hear Peter Brook–perhaps the most influential

Shakespearean director of the past century–disclose his quest for a

“secret play” hidden within the Bard’s comedies and dramas. We

listen to Sir Peter Hall, founder of the Royal Shakespeare Company,

as he launches into an impassioned, table-pounding fury while

discussing how the means of unleashing the full intensity of

Shakespeare’s language has been lost–and how to restore it.

Rosenbaum’s hilarious inside account of “the Great Shakespeare

‘Funeral Elegy’ Fiasco,” a man-versus-computer clash, illustrates

the iconic struggle to define what is and isn’t “Shakespearean.”

And he demonstrates the way Shakespearean scholars such as Harold

Bloom can become great Shakespearean characters in their own

right.

The Shakespeare Wars offers a thrilling opportunity to engage

with Shakespeare’s work at its deepest levels. Like Explaining

Hitler, this book is destined to revolutionize the way we think

about one of the overwhelming obsessions of our time.
