William Shakespeare
A summary / description of the play.Shakespeare's dark tragic-comedy embraces such
controversial ideas as abuse of power, the temptations of the flesh and
the corruption of innocence. His exquisite poetry and web of intriguing
characters, with the shining figure of Isabella at its centre, ensure that
Measure for Measure remains an enthralling and contemporary work.
