Résumé
Could Shakespeare have had the concept “Middle Ages”? This article argues that the question itself is anachronistic, depending upon ideas of periodization which developed slowly and reached their current form during the nineteenth century. By contrast, Shakespeare’s ideas of time are consistent, and he and his contemporaries understood language-change in time, but his ideas of pasts and pastness belong in a different conceptual space.
