Shakespeare's the Light's Not Me

Man in his fundamental separateness from nature returns full circle in order to obtain what montane would call a mutual bond with nature. One of my favourite meditations in Shakespeare comes from the Duke senior in as you like it who asks his men in the forest if they shall go and kill venison. The play is filled not only with animals characterized in human terms but a reduction of the human to the animal something i would advise you to do is to look out for the similes Look out for how people are described like this animal or as this animal we see the melancholy jucks shedding big round tears upon seeing a poor sequestered stag that had taken a hurt.
