AB  - Argues that in Merchant of Venice, "Shakespeare depicts a . . . transition from the typological allegory to something like the [Paul] de Manian, metatextual understanding of reading itself as allegorical." Reads Pericles as "a kind of fulfillment of [Merchant of Venice's] . . . prefiguration."
