Shakspere's Holinshed: The Chronicle And The Historical Plays Compared is a book written by W.G. Boswell-Stone. The book is a comprehensive study of the historical plays of William Shakespeare and their source material, specifically the work of Raphael Holinshed. The book examines how Shakespeare adapted and transformed the historical accounts found in Holinshed's Chronicles into dramatic works of art. The author provides a detailed analysis of the similarities and differences between the plays and the original historical accounts, highlighting the ways in which Shakespeare's creative imagination brought the stories to life. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Shakespeare and Renaissance literature, as well as for anyone interested in the history and culture of Elizabethan England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
