Here's an interesting article on Shakespeare's examination of the human spirit and the nature of evil. Got this at my favorite go-to place on the Internet every day, Arts & Letters Daily.

I also recommend The Writer's Almanac.

I really like ALD, too.

Plastic is better for commentary, but ALD is all-around more interesting.

Hmm, this is interesting. I was deeply annoyed by the opening. Anybody who says that the 20th century has no better tools for dealing with a mind diseased than the sixteenth is himself quite bonkers. Possibly this colored my view of the rest, but I am afraid that I found myself skimming for the Shakespeare quotations, which I read avidly, and couldn't actually read the prose of the critic. Maybe later.

Thanks for the link to ALD -- I suspect I've found yet another thing to fall behind on reading. :-)

The article itself is also interesting, but the introductory text made me want to hiss and spit -- the writer is making some very strange & false assumptions about depression and the treatment thereof.
