Drawing upon recent criticism on history and literature, and the rarely-discussed work of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century women critics, Sasha Roberts presents new readings of \u003ci\u003eRomeo and Juliet\u003c\/i\u003e and its early modern cultural context. Concisely-argued chapters address a wide range of themes - including rival texts, body politics, ethnic identity, adolescence, sexuality, masculinity, relations between women, family dynamics, ritual behaviour, language, bawdy, and the commodification of romantic love - and examine the play's striking imagery of disease, blood, beds, and wombs. Clearly written, this lively and accessible study of \u003ci\u003eRomeo and Juliet\u003c\/i\u003e will be of interest to readers both new to and familiar with the play.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Liverpool University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47614643601559,"sku":"9780746308127","price":5145.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780746308127.webp?v=1775095186","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/romeo-and-juliet-9780746308127","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
