Book excerpt: William Shakespeare's works have been studied in multiple ways, but the focus of his use of gemstones and jewelry during the course of his comedies has been almost untouched by critical review. He uses these items to connect to his audience in many ways, often for the purpose of showing how they are used as part of relationships during the course of courtship and marriage. Shakespeare introduces gemstones and jewelry in his plays in three ways: gemstones and jewelry that would be seen onstage by the audience and the characters; directly mentioned gemstones and jewelry that are referred to by the characters, yet never appear onstage; and gemstones and jewelry that are used for comparison in similes and metaphors to confer specific characteristics or value on the items or persons that they refer to. This focus reveals a new perspective with which to view Shakespeare's comedies, both in the stories they present and the associations gemstones and jewelry carried with them in the eyes of members of Elizabethan culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A passage from the book... As no writer has made a more beautiful and telling use of precious stones in his verse than did Shakespeare, the author believed that if these references could be gathered together for comparison and for quotation, and if this were done from authentic and early editions of the great dramatist-poet's works, it would give the literary and historical student a better understanding as to what gems were used in Shakespeare's time, and in what terms he referred to them. This has been done here, and comparisons are made with the precious stones of the present time, showing what mines were known and gems were worn in Shakespeare's day, and also something of those that were not known then, but are known at this time.The reader is also provided with a few important data serving to show what could have been the sources of the poet's knowledge regarding precious stones and whence were derived those which he may have seen or of which he may have heard. As in this period the beauty of a [8] jewel depended as much, or more, upon the elaborate setting as upon the purity and brilliancy of the gems, the author has given some information regarding the leading goldsmith-jewellers, both English and French, of Shakespeare's age. Thus the reader will find, besides the very full references to the poet's words and clear directions as to where all the passages can be located in the First Folio of 1623, much material that will stimulate an interest in the subject and promote further independent research.
