This Element interrogates the scepticism that Shakespeare's visionary women face and considers the ways in which they perform the truth of their experiences to a hostile onstage audience. It concludes that prophecy gives women a brief access to political conversations in which they are not welcome as they wrest narrative control from male speakers.
