THE PERSONALITY OF
SHAKESPEARE
EDWARD WAGENKNECHT
Drawing upon the known facts of
Shakespeare's life, the writings of his
contemporaries, and, above all, his im·
mortal works Wagenknecht establishes
that Shakespeare was "an extraordinar·
ily sensitive man" who "used his sen·
sitivities to find his way into the hearts
and minds of others." Here is the por·
trait of a vital man who was also the
greatest of all poets of the English
language. $5.00.
A LITERARY APPROACH TO
THE NEW TESTAMENT
JOHN PAUL PRITCHARD
The New Testament is a work of ex·
ceptional literary interest, both in its
original tongues and in the varying
English translations into which it has
been rendered. In painstakingly but
eminently readable form Pritchard an·
swers five questions: Who wrote each
book, when did he write it, to whom
did he address it, in whose interest did
he write, and what was his motive?
