  • Sweet Marjoram
    DeWitt Henry
    Be warned! The far-ranging notes and essays of Sweet Marjoram are addictive. Once I began reading, I couldn’t stop. I wanted more of Henry’s wit and wisdom, his dazzling, surprising juxtapositions. I wanted to see him keep making the familiar new, and the strange familiar. Whether he’s writing about folly or time or food or meat or envy or appetite, Henry has a gift for making ...

  • Heterodox Shakespeare
    Sean Benson
    The last quarter century has seen a 'turn to religion' in Shakespeare studies as well as competing assertions by secular critics that Shakespeare’s plays reflect profound skepticism and even dismissal of the truth claims of revealed religion. This divide, though real, obscures the fact that Shakespeare often embeds both readings within the same play. This book is the first to p...

    Set in politically unstable environments, Shakespeare’s history plays--Richard II, 1 Henry IV, 2 Henry IV and Henry V--and HBO’s Western series Deadwood (2004-2006) all stand as critiques of myths of national origin, the sanitized stories we tell ourselves about how power imposes order on chaos.
