Description
Examines select passages of moderizations of ShT by John Markland, Henry Travers, Andrew Jackson, and William Lipscomb for how their diction, imagery, and emphases encourage us to approach the Tale as "implied performance." All four interpret and develop the audio and visual aspects of the work.
