Shakespeare’s Window Into the Soul: The Mystical Wisdom in Shakespeare’s Characters

Langbeschreibung
Shakespeare's plays, argues Lings, concern far more than the workings of the human psyche; they are sacred, visionary works that, through the use of esoteric symbol and form, mirror the passage the soul must make to reach its final sacred union with the divine.
