Book excerpt: By taking Shakespeare down from the lofty pedestal where Victorian scholars placed him, Knutson provides a clear vision of Shakespeare and his company as they were: hard-nosed participants in the highly competitive world of English theater. Knutson's text combines an impressive array of factual information with rare insight into not only Shakesperian "masterpieces" but also the seldom-read plays, to give a lively account of commercial theater in Shakespeare's London.
