Shakespeare's Mortal Knowledge — Zulfikar Ghose

Novelist and poet Ghose presents radical interpretations of The Bard's four most popular tragedies, for both the scholar and the theatergoer. He delves into such questions as whether Cordelia deliberately provoked her father into disinheriting her, whether jealousy was really the reason Othello murdered his wife, and why there is so much sex everywhere.
