Beskrivning
This eighth volume of The Shakespearean International Yearbook presents a special section on 'European Shakespeares', proceeding from the claim that Shakespeare's literary craft was not just native English or British, but was filtered and fashioned through a Renaissance awareness that needs to be recognized as European, and that has had effects and afterlives across the Continent. Guest editors Ton Hoenselaars and Clara Calvo have constructed this section to highlight both how the spread of 'Shakespeare' throughout Europe has brought together the energies of a wide variety of European cultures across several centuries, and how the inclusion of Shakespeare in European culture has been not only a European but also a world affair. The Shakespearean International Yearbook continues to provide an annual survey of important issues and developments in contemporary Shakespeare studies. Contributors to this issue come from the US and the UK, Spain, Switzerland and South Africa, Canada, The Netherlands, India, Portugal, Greece, France, and Hungary. In addition to the section on European Shakespeares, this volume includes essays on the genre of romance, issues of character, and other topics.

Recensioner i media

'The collection is an achievement in reading the cultural forms that it engages, with Neill's work, and his biography, along an axis of placement-displacement. With this instalment, The Shakespearean International Yearbook continues its valuable focus on global Shakespeares and the profound connections between Shakespearean receptions, reappropriations, after-lives, and locale. Not only that, it travels, via Michael Neill's works, widely and provocatively through conceptions of place and displacement that are pertinent to postcolonial and early modern scholars alike.' Sixteenth Century Journal 'This volume serves as an eloquent testimonial to the range and influence of one of our most important critics of Renaissance drama.' Studies in English Literature 1500-1900
