Harold Bloom, America's greatest and wittiest critic, argues that Shakespeare, our greatest and wittiest writer, invented humanity as we know it. Shakespeare: The Invention of the Human is a definitive tour of all the plays that takes us back to the heart of Shakespeare's genius: his characters, Hamlet, Rosalind, Falstaff and Lear continue to speak to us because they have all played a defining role in our understanding of personality. This inspiring, provocative interpretation reveals how Shakespeare will continue to explain us, in part because he invented us.
