Abstract
Science has advanced more in the last thirty years , we are told , than in the previous thirty centuries ; and to judge by the current theatre of the absurd we seem to have moved from our cultural past with equal speed . In this transition have we cut ourselves off from Shakespeare , moved too far away to be able to view him clearly with the naked eye? Or can we , as we see and read his plays , share substantially the same experience his contemporaries enjoyed? Such is the enquiry I propose to consider in this paper , with particular reference to Timon of Athens .
