Beschreibung

At the beginning of Henry V Shakespeare asked his audience to 'Piece out our imperfections with your thoughts': but what mental world did the Elizabethans draw on to fill out the 'vasty fields of France', Cleopatra's barge or Julius Caesar's forum? In this book, Neil MacGregor attempts to revisit the world of Elizabethan experience through discussions of objects including a communion cup, a rapier, a pedlar's trunk and a holy relic - travelling 'through the charisma of things, to a past world'. Slightly off-mint and felt-tip mark on lower trimmed edge.

There is nothing much to say. The book is awesome. It's written in a great way and I was completely immersed in the world. Well, I'm a Shakespeare real, so no winder I liked the book. But it's very interesting and I learned things I didn't know about Elizabethan England through the everyday objects.
