Despite their diversity in tone and subject matter, Shakespeare’s four mature tragedies—Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, and Macbeth—all have an essential experience in common. Bernard McElroy defines this experience as the collapse of the subjective world of the tragic hero.

Originally published in 1973.
