Once upon a time, I thought love was a fairytale. I thought selling myself to a mafia boss was noble. So what if they called him the Beast? I grew up in rags, and he would lift me to riches. All I had to do was give him my soul. He was punishing. Insatiable. Captivating. Nothing like I expected him to be. Each day my reality blurred, leaving me wondering if I was slave or princess. The longer I stayed, the more I lost myself to him. Even after every cruelty the Beast visited upon me, I longed for his touch. Even after every savage word he spoke, I begged for his lips. I thought the worst thing he could take was my body. I was too naïve to guard my heart. Once upon a time, I thought love was a fairytale. Now I know better than to speak of happily ever afters.

Will & Love examines four of Shakespeare's love plays (Romeo and Juliet, Troilus and Cressida, Twelfth Night, and Antony and Cleopatra) in light of the Augustinian psychology at the heart of the theological romance tradition. This tradition, which Shakespeare inherits from medieval theologian-poets such as Boethius, Dante, Petrarch, and Chaucer, issues from the idea, initially expressed by Augustine in his Confessions, that love functions as volitional weight, as a kind of magnetism or almost-gravitational force--that it moves the lover in mysterious ways yet without diminishing his or her agency. Will & Love highlights Shakespeare's conception of love in terms of motion and explores the metaphysical, ethical, psychological, and dramatic implications of his doing so.

This book is an analysis of not only the literal merits of the bard but also the influences and impacts of his works on society, as well as the different incantations of the human mind and interpersonal relationships. From addressing the status of Jews in Venice, to the differences between fate and destiny, to the vainglorious villainy of Iago, it delves at times deep into human psyche. It addresses issues that were not only relevant then but seem to transgress the eons. Its significance lies in identifying and challenging beliefs of characters and conditions. Was Caesar heroic or was Brutus the great devil? What role did the essence of time and timing play in the tale of Romeo and Juliet? How was gender ambiguity presented in The Tempest? It examines the tiny sliver that separates hate and love and what it might take to unite or cross that divide. Reviews: “I am so impressed with your study of historical positions to contradict some of the playwright’s assumptions. But equally awesome is your sensitive interpretation of communal bias in those times and Shakespeare’s role in portraying it. You will certainly have a great future as a scholar and writer.” –Coomi Kapoor, Contributing Editor, The Indian Express “Extremely well-written blogs… You have brought out so clearly the role played by fate and destiny in this story of the star-crossed lovers while also drawing attention to the manner in which character determines the crucial choices made by the protagonists. Your analysis of the paradox of a love story interspersed with violence was also very interesting. You evidently have the ability and the inclination to look at Shakespeare’s plays critically. Wonderful and so unusual in a young person today. Do keep writing.” –Dr. Ranjana Kaul, Associate Professor, Delhi University
