On the threshold: hospitality in Shakespeare's drama

Battell, Sophie Emma (2023). On the threshold: hospitality in Shakespeare's drama. Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press.

Abstract

In this critical analysis, Sophie E. Battell examines hospitality in Shakespeare’s plays. By drawing on literary theory, modern philosophy, and anthropology as well as early modern scientific and religious texts, the book advances our understanding of Shakespeare as a dramatist concerned with the ethical questions at stake in encounters between guests and hosts of various kinds.
