This volume provides: an account of previous traditions of shame and of the Renaissance context a thematic map of the rich manifestations of both masculine and feminine shame in Shakespeare detailed readings of Hamlet , Othello , and King Lear an analysis of the limitations of Roman shame in Anthony and Cleopatra and Coriolanus a polemical discussion of the fortunes of shame in modern literature after Shakespeare.
