註釋Shakespeare was not only a poet-playwright; he was a sage who saw deeply into human nature and mankind's place in the natural order. He both diagnosed the ills of society-and saw beyond them to a healthier, saner world.The purpose of this little book is to reveal Shakespeare as philosopher and all-round apothecary of the soul, whose fund of wisdom is there for all human beings to draw from-indeed cries out to be heard. As the Bard himself said, through the lips of King John: 'Then pause not; for the present time's so sick, That present med'cine must be minister'd.'This book is both a journey through the wasteland with our greatest artist as guide and inspiration, and an essential tonic to the soul: for in a world made increasingly barren by mankind's alienation from nature, Shakespeare's words are like healing streams bubbling up from earth's depth
