The Mind According to Shakespeare

"Dr. Marvin Bennett Krims, a psychoanalyst for more than three decades, takes readers into the sonnets and characters of Shakespeare and unveils the Bard's talent for illustrating psychoanalytical issues. These "hidden" aspects of the characters are one reason they feel real and, thus, have such a powerful effect, explains Krims. In exploring Shakespeare's characters, readers may also learn much about themselves. In fact, Krims explains in one chapter how reading Shakespeare and other works helped him resolve his own inner conflicts."--BOOK JACKET.
