Books by Helen Hackett
Helen Hackett of University College London has published books on images of Elizabeth I, on A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and on women as readers and writers of fiction in the English Renaissance. Her most recent book, Shakespeare and Elizabeth: The Meeting of Two Myths, is about the afterlives of the playwright and the Queen as cultural icons, and the many ways in which their mythologies have intertwined.
