Summary/Abstract: This arguably collaborative play has occupied a mostly marginal position in the Shakespearean canon and has been regarded as an aesthetically non-finite product, perhaps symptomatic for a moment of professional/personal crisis. The present study aims to help redress this negative interpretational verdict and offer a contemporary re-appraisal of the play, from a deconstructionist perspective.
