Shakespeare and Language: Reason, Eloquence and Artifice in the Renaissance

About Shakespeare and Language: Reason, Eloquence and Artifice in the Renaissance

Why would Elizabethan audiences find Shakespeare's character of the Fool so funny? And what exactly is meant by the name the 'Weird' Sisters in Macbeth? Jonathan Hope, in a comprehensive and fascinating study, looks at how the concept of words meant something entirely different to Elizabethan audiences than they do to us today.
