William Shakespeare is perhaps the most frequently quoted author of the English-speaking world. His plays, in turn, "quote" a wide variety of sources, from books and ballads to persons and events. In this dynamic study of Shakespeare's plays, Douglas Bruster demonstrates that such borrowing can illuminate the world in which Shakespeare and his contemporary playwrights lived and worked, while also shedding light on later cultures that quote his plays. In contrast to the New Historicism's sometimes arbitrary linkage of literary works with elements drawn from the surrounding culture, Quoting Shakespeare focuses on the resources that writers used in making their works. Bruster shows how this borrowing can give us valuable insight into the cultural, historical, and political positions of writers and their works. Because Shakespeare's plays have often been quoted by other writers, this study also examines what subsequent uses of Shakespeare's plays reveal about the writers and cultures that use them. In this way, Quoting Shakespeare insists that literary production and reception are both integral to a historical approach to literature.

Shakespeare is the most famous playwright in the English language. Every day, all over the world his plays are performed in thousands of productions. Quotations from his plays and poems have become part of the language and are often spoken without people realising that they are quoting Shakespeare. Shakespeare's characters are as famous as the titles of his plays. Macbeth, Henry V, Hamlet, Shylock, Romeo and Juliet to name but a few. They range the entire gamut of human nature: from the misguided nobility of Brutus to the manipulative malice of lago; from the buffoonery of Bottom to the world-weariness of Prospero; from the seductive flightiness of Cleopatra to the wisdom of Portia. Many of Shakespeare's plays have been filmed (Hamlet, Love's Labour's Lost, Romeo + Juliet), or have formed the basis for other films (Ten Things I Hate About You was based on The Taming Of The Shrew), and Shakespeare's life provided the raw material for Shakespeare In Love. This book examines every play and poem, tells what is known of Shakespeare's life, quotes his great lines, lists the best film versions and points out the most useful texts and websites for you to find out more.

Hamlet's "To be or not to be" soliloquy is quoted more often than any other passage in Shakespeare. It is arguably the most famous speech in the Western world - though few of us can remember much about it. This book carefully unpacks the individual words, phrases and sentences of Hamlet's soliloquy in order to reveal how and why it has achieved its remarkable hold on our culture. Hamlet's speech asks us to ask some of the most serious questions there are regarding knowledge and existence. In it, Shakespeare also expands the limits of the English language. Douglas Bruster therefore reads Hamlet's famous speech in "slow motion" to highlight its material, philosophical and cultural meaning and its resonance for generations of actors, playgoers and readers.
