Description

Shakespeare's plays are poetical masterpieces that not only mesmerize us with their lyrical beauty but also convey sage messages critically important to humanity. This means that Shakespeare is a greater literary genius than previously thought, and his plays more profound than previously imagined.
The Mystical Art of Shakespeare Volume III explains how Shakespeare meticulously crafted every scene of Twelfth Night and Macbeth to each convey its central spiritual message, using three unique Shakespearean techniques: cohesive unity, thematic resonance, and focused allegorical scenes.
The book explains Shakespeare's reason for calling the play Twelfth Night, and why it has an alternative title: What You Will. It also explains the central message in the powerful and dramatic depiction of the genesis of evil in Macbeth. Shakespeare conveys his meaning in each of the plays through a series of brilliant scenes that leave an indelible image in our mind and in our inner psyche.This book is written as a running commentary of the two plays so readers can follow the narrative of Twelfth Night and Macbeth like reading a novel. The increased understanding from the commentary intensifies the drama and reflects how Shakespeare conveys his spiritual messages through our emotional involvement. It is akin to learning by direct experience-the initiatic quality that makes Shakespeare's plays an invaluable gift to humanity.
