Americans in the 21st century can learn a lot from an Elizabethan Englishman who wrote about classical Rome. That's what Paul A. Cantor says in Shakespeare's Roman Trilogy: The Twilight of the Ancient World.

In a 10-minute conversation with The Bookmonger, Cantor describes what he's learned about Shakespeare over a lifetime of teaching his works, what he thinks of the recent production of "Julius Casear" that features a decapitation of a Trump-like character, and why he believes "Breaking Bad" is the greatest TV show of all time.
