Resumo: The ambiguity ascribed to Shakespeare was a recent subject of academic scrutiny. This article investigates the history of modern political thought scholarship for that phenomenon. According to this proposition, polyphony would derive from the use of the rhetorical technique known as in utramque partem, an approach of two opposite sides of the same topic, in order to stage delicate political questions. Using a pair of plays written in the context of intense discussions about war and peace in London as case studies, I seek to explore how Shakespeare represented the Anglo-Spanish conflict through antagonistic perspectives.

Este artigo investiga determinada explicação para o fenômeno creditada a alguns estudiosos da História do Pensamento Político Moderno. Segundo propõem, a polifonia em certas obras decorreria do uso pelo dramaturgo da técnica retórica in utramque partem, abordagem de dois lados opostos de um mesmo tópico, na dramatização de questões políticas delicadas. Utilizaremos como estudos de caso duas peças escritas em contexto de intensas discussões sobre guerra e paz em Londres, buscando compreender como Shakespeare representou o assunto por meio de perspectivas antagônicas.  Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2022-08-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/letras/article/view/5690010.5902/2176148556900Letras; Edição Especial - 2/2020: Teatro Elisabetano e Jacobino: estudos textuais, teatrais e críticos; 93-1082176-14851519-3985reponame:Letras (Santa Maria.
