Remembering Shakespeare

John O'Meara was born in Canada and educated in England, at the University of East Anglia, where he became a Shakespearean. In his writing career he developed a neo-Romantic approach that allowed him to explain, among other things, how Shakespeare could evolve out of his deep tragic period into his triumphant late plays (sometimes called "romances"). This neo-Romantic position drew him more and more intensively into the study of Romantic and post-Romantic literature, and the result was a series of studies collected under the title "On Nature and the Goddess". Because of his background, he was also able to refer this literature back to Shakespeare who now became a measure and touchstone of what many authors were claiming is possible in our relationship to Nature and the Goddess.
