Shakespeare for the Seeker

- Volume 2

Bag om Shakespeare for the Seeker

How could the evolution of the human mind be described before Darwin's hypothesis was suggested? How could the functionality of mythological archetypes be illustrated before Jung's terminology was introduced? And how could the developmental effects of travelling into the past and the future be explained before Einstein's theory of relativity was proposed? Shakespeare used the symbolic language of his poetry to expose West European society to these ideas. It was going to take some time before these ideas would be digested, accepted, and implemented. The series "Shakespeare for the Seeker" explains the symbolic meaning of the plays. The plays' plots as well as their meanings may be fully understood only if one realizes that all the plays are interlinked. Together they form a narrative that describes the most recent episodes of human evolution. It is a fascinating story that illustrates how European civilization was designed, directed, and implemented. The series "Shakespeare for the Seeker" consists of four volumes. Volume 2 presents the analysis of "Pericles, Prince of Tyre", "Troilus and Cressida", "Timon of Athens", "The Comedy of Errors", and the French trilogy, i.e., "All's Well That Ends Well", "As You Like It", and "Love's Labour's Lost". It also includes an introduction to Shakespeare's Sonnets. No prior reading of the plays is needed to follow the presented analysis.
