Onimia Szekspirowska i specyfika anglosaskiej onomastyki literackiej — na marginesie monografii Granta W. Smitha „Names as Metaphors in Shakespeare’s Comedies”

The review discusses the 2021 monograph “Names as Metaphors in Shakespeare’s Comedies” by Grant W. Smith. The structure and content of the monograph is presented, highlighting its grounding in classic Peircean semiotics and outlining the main categories of Shakespearian names. The publication of the book under review becomes the point of departure for more general remarks concerning the specific nature of literary onomastics in the USA and Europe.
