Johnson's Preface to Shakespeare Dattani "TARA"
“The Preface is the impartial estimate of Shakespeare’s virtues and defects by a powerful mind”. Dickens
Anglo Saxon
(Halliday). Johnson’s Preface to Shakespeare is a classic of literary criticism in which he is above his Esslin "Absurd
political personal, religious and literary prejudices: mentions both the merits and demerits of Drama"
Shakespeare like a true critic; and become very honest and sincere in his estimate of Shakespeare. Feminist Criticism in
Johnson tests Shakespeare by the fact and experience, by the test of time, nature and universality, his Wilderness
defense to tragicomedy is superb and still unsurpassed; in which he has excelled his guru Dryden. He Freud's Stage of
Development finds Shakespeare great because he holds a mirror to nature. In minimized the importance of love on development

One of the first excellence of Shakespeare, as Preface shows: Jumpa Lahiri

Drama the poet of nature; the poet that holds up to his readers a faithful mirror
if manners and life.” According to Johnson, “Shakespeare always makes Myth of Sisyphus
nature predominate over accident”. His blend of tragedy and comedy is Newspaper
also nearer and more natural to life, because the mingled drama Oedipus

Post Feminism
Shakespeare was the originator of “the form, the character, the language Rushdie
Neo-Classical and the shadows of English drama” and “opens a mine contains cold and Sartre
or Augustan diamonds”. “Addison speaks the language of poets, and Shakespeare of "Existentialism"
Age men”, thus, Shakespeare is one of the great and the original masters of the language. There are few Sashi Despande
limitations of Preface too: Johnson could not fathom the depths of Shakespeare’s poetic genius. Nor Satan
could he think of the psychological subtleties of his characterization, he was equally deaf to “the Structuralism and
overtones of Shakespeare’s poetry at its most sublime his criticism of his perceptive powers. In the Literature
Elizabethan
Age mystery of Shakespeare tragedy was beyond the reach of his common sense. No wonder then if he feels Tales from
that Shakespeare was at his best in comedy”. Nevertheless these shortcomings do not mar the basic Shakespeare
merits of his Preface which is as immortal as the plays of Shakespeare and the tests of Shakespeare Tess
