This paper explores the extent to which Reading Shakespeare's plays provides for an useful insight into the way with which today's soldiers get better understanding of their positions in times of peace and war. As Shakespeare lived most of his life in war or in the shadow of war, it was not surprising that he bore upon himself and within his plays the scars of wars his nation fought during his lifetimes. Whereas in the traditional view Shakespeare's soldier character was appreciated as a symbol of manliness and Englishness, the professional Shakespeare criticism of recent years tends to find that every apparent support of soldier-characters in Shakespeare, especially Henry V, are read as its opposite. However, in this paper I try to trace a close relationship between soldiers and their appropriations of Shakespeare - as we can see from the case of Henry V - rather than bridge the gap between two different approaches to Shakespeare's ideas on war. As we can read from Henry V, Coriolanus and Hamlet, the renaissance military humanism, which embodied the idea of a multi-faceted leader comprising skills of a soldier and scholar, was well represented by Shakespeare. I believe that this intellectual traditions of the military circles in Renaissance England have been so rooted in the culture of the military that they are still influential even today. I hope that when the humanities at military academies suffer from cuts in their portion of the curriculum and more emphasis is placed on practical, or occupational, knowledge than literature, Shakespeare in the military classroom will provide future officers with a means to advocate their roles in society, but also influence the way they fight,
Abstract
This paper explores the extent to which Reading Shakespeare's plays provides for an useful insight into the way with which today's soldiers get better understanding of their positions in times of peace and war. As Shakespeare lived most of his life in war or in the shadow of war, it was not surprising that he bore upon himself and within his plays the scars of wars his nation fought during his lifetimes. Whereas in the traditional view Shakespeare's soldier character was appreciated as a symbol of manliness and Englishness, the professional Shakespeare criticism of recent years tends to find that every apparent support of soldier-characters in Shakespeare, especially Henry V, are read as its opposite. However, in this paper I try to trace a close relationship between soldiers and their appropriations of Shakespeare - as we can see from the case of Henry V - rather than bridge the gap between two different approaches to Shakespeare's ideas on war. As we can read from Henry V, Coriolanus and Hamlet, the renaissance military humanism, which embodied the idea of a multi-faceted leader comprising skills of a soldier and scholar, was well represented by Shakespeare. I believe that this intellectual traditions of the military circles in Renaissance England have been so rooted in the culture of the military that they are still influential even today. I hope that when the humanities at military academies suffer from cuts in their portion of the curriculum and more emphasis is placed on practical, or occupational, knowledge than literature, Shakespeare in the military classroom will provide future officers with a means to advocate their roles in society, but also influence the way they fight,
