A friend and colleague, Naomi Liebler, who is also our resident (and
highly acclaimed) Shakespearean scholar, suggested the following:<br>
<br>
"The first name that comes to mind is Patricia Parker, an
incredibly brilliant senior scholar at Stanford. While she's not,
strictly speaking, a "linguist," almost everything she has published
shows an extraordinary sensitivity to nuance, etymology, and other
semantic/linguistic refinements in Shakespearean language, and nearly
everything she writes is inflected towards gender-related issues.
She's written something like half a dozen books; any of them would do,
The one with the most intriguing title, for this student's purposes,
might be <i>Literary Fat Ladies.</i> Another amazingly brilliant
Shakespearean is Marjorie Garber, at Harvard. Again, while not
focusing specifically on linguistics, her work is both foundational and
cutting-edge when it comes to gender studies."<br>
