"Shakespeare's global philosophy demonstrates systematically how Shakespeare deliberately structures his Sonnets of 1609 with the nature-based philosophy behind all his plays fully aware of their relevance for a burgeoning global consciousness. Part 1 examines step by step the 154 sonnets to reveal the consistent and comprehensive nature-based philosophy Shakespeare embeds in their unique combination of poetry and argument to present our birthright natural logic. Part 2 analyses Shakespeare's Folio of thirty-six plays and his four longer poems to show they can only be understood from the vantage of the Sonnet philosophy. Part 3 relates the naming of the Globe Theatre in 1599 to the nature-based philosophy of the Sonnets and its basis for the plays presented on its stage."--Publisher's website.
