Dream in Shakespeare

“In 1974 Dream in Shakespeare marked the debut of a young scholar with a rare gift for recognizing not only what is most Shakespearean about Shakespeare but what is at stake for us when we set out to interpret his vision. As fresh and perceptive as it was forty years ago, Dream in Shakespeare is one of those few critical monographs so beguiling that when one finishes reading it, one cries to dream again.”—Michael Dobson, Director of the Shakespeare Institute, Stratford-upon-Avon, and Professor of Shakespeare Studies, University of Birmingham

“This reissue of Marjorie Garber’s Dream in Shakespeare will allow those who don’t yet know the book to discover the pleasure of reading a great critic on our greatest author. It will remind you of what Garber has always been so very good at doing: taking something that we thought we knew and showing us how much more interesting and surprising in fact it is.” —David Scott Kastan, George M. Bodman Professor of English, Yale University
