201827703NY: Public Affairs. As New in As New dust jacket. 2018. Stated First Edition. First Printing. Hard Cover. 1568588127 . Inscribed by the author Clare Asquith the countess of Oxford and Asquith on the half-title. Quarter bound in publisher's gold cloth over red boards blue lettering on spine. Illustrated with six pages of full-color plates on glossy stock. Shakespeare's largely misunderstood narrative poems contain within them an explosive commentary on the political storms convulsing his country. The 1590s were bleak years for England. The queen was old the succession unclear and the treasury empty after decades of war. Amid the rising tension William Shakespeare published a pair of poems dedicated to the young Earl of Southampton: "Venus and Adonis" in 1593 and "The Rape of Lucrece" a year later. Although wildly popular during Shakespeare's lifetime to modern readers both works are almost impenetrable. But in her enthralling new book the Shakespearean scholar Clare Asquith reveals their hidden contents: two politically charged allegories of Tudor tyranny that justified-and even urged-direct action against an unpopular regime. The poems were Shakespeare's bestselling works in his lifetime evidence that they spoke clearly to England's wounded populace and disaffected nobility and especially to their champion the Earl of Essex. Shakespeare and the Resistance unearths Shakespeare's own analysis of a political and religious crisis which would shortly erupt in armed rebellion on the streets of London. Using the latest historical research it resurrects the story of a bold bid for freedom of conscience and an end to corruption that was erased from history by the men who suppressed it. This compelling reading situates Shakespeare at the heart of the resistance movement. Clare Asquith is an Oxford educated Shakespeare scholar as well as countess of Oxford and Asquith. This volume was a gift from Lady Oxford to the Caxton Club the venerable Chicago bibliophilic society on October 11 2018.
