Professor J. Dover Wilson: Six Tragedies of Shakespeare (An Introduction for the Plain Man)-IV, Othello: Antony and Cleopatra

on 2LO London and 5XX Daventry

View in Radio Times

Both the tragedies of which Professor Dover Wilson will talk to-night are tragedies of mature love - of the man of action, no longer young, who loves 'not wisely but too well.' The noble stature of Othello, the motiveless malignity of Iago, the sordid theme of Antony and Cleopatra and the marvellous poetry in which Shakespeare clothed it, will form the theme of his fourth talk.
