About this product

Product Information

William Shakespeare understood power: what it is, how it works, how it is gained, and how it is lost. In The Hollow Crown , Eliot A. Cohen reveals how the battling princes of Henry IV and scheming senators of Julius Caesar can teach us to better understand power and politics today. The White House, after all, is a court-with intrigue and conflict rivalling those on the Globe's stage-as is an army, a business, or a university. And each court is full of driven characters, in all their ambition, cruelty, and humanity. Henry V 's inspiring speeches reframe John F. Kennedy's appeal, Richard III 's wantonness illuminates Vladimir Putin's brutality, and The Tempest 's grace offers a window into the presidency of George Washington. An original and incisive perspective, The Hollow Crown shows how Shakespeare's works transform our understanding of the leaders who, for good or ill, make and rule our world.

Reviews
"To Eliot Cohen's many laurels earned as a public servant and scholar, add another: His deep reading of the West's deepest student of humanity has yielded perennially pertinent lessons about the challenges of governance."-- George F. Will, "Lawyers and judges devote a lot of attention to literature, leadership and power, and for those inclined, Eliot Cohen's recent book is highly recommended."-- Law.com, "Cohen's compelling and powerful book, The Hollow Crown: Shakespeare on How Leaders Rise, Rule, and Fall , is a superb primer on Shakespeare, especially his perspective on human character and political power." -- Washington Diplomat, " The Hollow Crown is a thoroughly readable and enjoyable survey of some of Shakespeare's finest work... Cohen's book will shed light on history and literature while provoking thought about how to read and how to operate today."-- Washington Examiner
