reviewed Money, Language, and Thought: Literary and Philosophic Economies from the Medieval to the Modern Era on September 26, 2015 Money, Language, and Thought: Literary and Philosophic Economies from the Medieval to the Modern Era
Super great chapter with a close reading of Merchant of Venice in terms of money. As a literary theorist, not only does he have great conceptual readings of Merchant, he has also read surprisingly broadly across the Shakespeare cannon (reference to 2 HVI, Cymbeline, 2HIV, are frequent in footnotes). Much respect.
