In \u003cem\u003eShakespeare's Ocean, \u003c\/em\u003e Dan Brayton foregrounds the maritime dimension of a writer whose plays and poems have had an enormous impact on literary notions of nature and, in so doing, plots a new course for ecocritical scholarship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShakespeare lived during a time of great expansion of geographical knowledge. The world in which he imagined his plays was newly understood to be a sphere covered with water.
