Shakespeare and the Founders of Liberty in America is a book written by Charles Mills Gayley that explores the influence of William Shakespeare on the founding of America and the development of American ideas about liberty. The book analyzes how Shakespeare's works were read and interpreted by the founding fathers, including Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and Benjamin Franklin, and how these ideas were integrated into the American political and cultural landscape. The book also examines the role of Shakespeare in shaping American literature and culture, and how his works continue to resonate with American audiences today. Through a detailed analysis of Shakespeare's plays and the writings of the founding fathers, Shakespeare and the Founders of Liberty in America provides a unique perspective on the intersection of literature, politics, and culture in America's early history.1917.
