關於作者：
Stephen Greenblatt
Stephen Greenblatt born November 7, 1943, is an award-winning
literary critic, theorist and scholar. Greenblatt is regarded by
many as the “father” of new historicism, a set of critical
practices that he often refers to as "cultural poetics;" his works
have been highly influential since the early 1980s when he
introduced the term. Greenblatt has written and edited numerous
books and articles relevant to new historicism, the study of
culture, Renaissance studies and Shakespeare studies and is
considered to be an expert in these fields. He is also co-founder
of the literary-cultural journal Representations, which often
publishes articles by new historicists. Educated at Yale University
and Pembroke College, Greenblatt was a professor at the University
of California, Berkeley for 28 years before taking his current
position at Harvard University. He has guest lectured at
universities around the world. Greenblatt shares many anecdotes
about his academic and non-academic experiences in interviews and
in his writing.
