- W2004694590 abstract "THOMAS BETTERIDGE's Shakespearean Fantasy and Politics begins by stating its ambitious aim of seeking a new paradigm for contemporary Shakespearian criticism, one which can take theoretical account of Betteridge's conviction that ‘Shakespeare's drama is centrally concerned with questions of truth, language and ethics’ (1). Betteridge's first move is to launch a sharp attack on New Historicism, which he accuses of being both under-theorized and (as many others have also alleged) cavalier about history. Betteridge declares his attention of being himself careful to pay detailed attention to historical particularities, and he does start off by providing a sophisticated analysis of both the inception of the idea of feudalism and its historiographical representation, which he links neatly to King Lear to argue that rather than being a play about the death of feudalism, it is in fact about its birth. He is not always so careful, though. In his discussion of As You Like It, for instance, he makes astonishingly little of the reference to the howling of Irish wolves against the moon (80), barely glancing at the obvious context of the Irish rebellion against Elizabeth's authority and reading this rather in completely dehistoricized fashion as ‘representative of the collapse of Rosalind's fantasy of love’ (81). I am also entirely unable to make sense of his statement that one could equate the difference between Julius Caesar and Coriolanus directly to their specific historical context. Coriolanus is an Elizabethan celebration of the fact that when the monarch is a woman her gender means that the relationship between ruler and body politic will also be metonymic – it can never be closed. Julius Caesar is a Jacobean warning of the dangers of a ruler whose place within the political order means that they can aspire to metaphoric totalisation – to make the metaphor of the body politic real.
