Synopsis: |
Drawing on the later writings of Martin Heidegger, the book traces the correspondence between the philosopher's concept of technology and Shakespeare's poetics of human and natural productivity in the Sonnets. Using the writings of Aristotle, Plato, Nietzsche, and Agamben as a vital counterpoint to Heidegger, the argument interweaves its readings of technology as philosophical concept in the Sonnets with the poetic cycle's depictions of life and living beings. Neither fully historicist nor presentist in approach, the argument finds anticipations of current theoretical concerns in Shakespeare's poetic evocation of problems lodged in the philosophical tradition. Chapters touch on agriculture, the animal environment, memory and survival, print culture, musical instruments, and ecological waste, as well as moments of abstract thought. |
