Description: Published in Great Britain, this volume gives a fresh insight into the background of the Elizabethan literature. The Elizabethan age saw a flowering of literature and a rich variety of human endeavour, but behind the story of achievement there were often dark confusions and uncertainties. The literary background was one of changing perspectives and shifting viewpoints which the author illustrates from the work of Spenser, Sidney, Raleigh, Shakespeare as well as Dr. Dee and the Italian Bruno. He highlights the special problems of identity which existed in the age of Shakespeare and shows how the dramatic device of disguise became a metaphor for general identity problems.
