The Soul of Wit: G. K. Chesterton on William Shakespeare - Paperback
by G. K. Chesterton (Author), Dale Ahlquist (Editor)
The sane man who is sane enough to see that Shakespeare wrote Shakespeare is sane enough not to worry whether he did or not, quipped G. K. Chesterton. The prolific author -- whose works include journalism, poetry, plays, history, biography, apologetics, and detective fiction -- took a keen interest in the English literary tradition, particularly in the plays of its greatest dramatist. This original compilation by Chesterton expert Dale Ahlquist introduces the best of the noted critic's short reviews and essays on The Bard.
The extensive writings of G. K. Chesterton (1847-1936) include journalism, poetry, plays, history, biography, apologetics, and detective fiction. His works have profoundly influenced countless readers, from C. S. Lewis to Michael Collins to Mahatma Gandhi.
