Summary "Étude sur Shakspeare" by François Guizot is a literary and biographical analysis written during the mid-19th century. The publication explores the life, works, and influence of William Shakespeare, emphasizing the evolution of public perception and appreciation for his genius in French literary circles. The opening of the text provides a historical perspective on Shakespeare's growing recognition in France, tracing the evolution from critical views, such as Voltaire's, to a broader admiration for his contributions to drama. Guizot discusses the societal conditions that contributed to Shakespeare's work, focusing on the nature of dramatic poetry and its roots in popular celebrations, as well as the interplay between the playwright and the audience. He lays the groundwork for a deeper exploration of how Shakespeare’s life experiences influenced his theater, emphasizing the importance of cultural context and the environment in which he created his enduring legacy.
