Shakespeare between Machiavelli and Hobbes explores Shakespeare's political outlook by comparing some of the playwright's works to the works of Italian political theorist Niccolò Machiavelli and English social contract theorist Thomas Hobbes. This ultimately reveals the materialist principles that underpin Shakespeare's imaginary states.
