Outline of Final Research Achievements |
There was a tendency for scholars and critics in the eighteenth century to value what they deemed to be the authorial intention to satisfy their own assumptions. Modern editions are not entirely free from their influences. Meanwhile,finding a way of resituating Shakespeare's drama in its original historical context is not easy. Historical critics and revisionists have been equally unsuccessful,since they based their reading on their fixed perceptions of history in manners similar to the way in which those in the eighteenth-century relied on their fixed imaginings of Shakespeare's authorial presence behind his works. A potential remedy to this may be sourced in the discipline of English law and literature, which locates Shakespeare's discourse in the context of the evolutionary process of English legal thinking before the eighteenth century. Adopting their practice, my research has now come to the stage of establishing a methodology of unwinding texts from eighteenth-century influences.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
18世紀という時代は英文学という学問の創成期でもある。つまり、英文学という学問の発展はシェイクスピアがイギリスの国民的詩人として神格化され、礼賛を受けるようになった現象と無関係ではない。教育制度としての「英文学」がその役割を終えようとしている21世紀の現代において、過去においてシェイクスピア作品が正典化した所以について探究することは、学問としての英文学の意義とシェイクスピアの真価について問い直すきっかけを広く社会に示すことである。
