Measure for Measure (Wordsworth Classics)
$7.05 USD
Although "Measure for Measure" ends like a comedy, with reconciliations, forgiveness and marriages, it has often been regarded as one of Shakespeare's problem plays. The drama shows the difficulty of effecting an appropriate balance between judicial severity and mercy, between sexual repression and decadence, and between political vigilance and social manipulation.
by : William Shakespeare and Cedric Watts
