Shakespeare's Language by Frank Kermode
A concise, readerly study of how Shakespeare uses diction, rhythm, rhetorical figures, imagery and syntactic play to shape character, advance plot and encode meaning; blending close readings with historical and philological insight, it traces recurring verbal strategies—metaphor, pun, verse-to-prose shifts, antithesis and other tropes—and shows how attention to these features illuminates performance, interpretation and the distinctive ways the plays think through language.
