This book is an analysis of not only the literal merits of the bard but also the influences and impacts of his works on society, as well as the different incantations of the human mind and interpersonal relationships. From addressing the status of Jews in Venice, to the differences between fate and destiny, to the vainglorious villainy of Iago, it delves at times deep into human psyche. It addresses issues that were not only relevant then but seem to transgress the eons. Its significance lies in identifying and challenging beliefs of characters and conditions. Was Caesar heroic or was Brutus the great devil? What role did the essence of time and timing play in the tale of Romeo and Juliet? How was gender ambiguity presented in The Tempest? It examines the tiny sliver that separates hate and love and what it might take to unite or cross that divide.
