Introducing Shakespeare A Graphic Guide

Shakespeare's absolute pre-eminence is unparalleled. His plays pack theatres and underpin Hollywood blockbusters. Nick Groom and Piero explore how Shakespeare became so influential, and why he is widely considered the greatest writer ever. More than a biography or a guide to his plays and sonnets, Introducing Shakespeare is a tour through his world and concludes that even after centuries, Shakespeare remains central to our understanding of humanity in all its richness and failings.

Nick Groom is Senior Lecturer in Post-Mediaeval Literature at the University of Bristol, and has published widely on Shakespeare, literature and contemporary culture. He is a regular contributor to The Times Higher Education Supplement, and lives on Dartmoor and in London.

Piero is an illustrator and graphic designer, selected twice for the 'Best of British Illustration' in 1998 and 1999, exhibiting his work at the Royal College of Art. He currently works for a London-based Latin newspaper.
