Summary

"This companion to contemporary global performances of Shakespeare guides students from critical methodologies through big pictures of global Shakespeare to case studies that employ these methodologies. Intended for use in the classroom, it employs a site-specific lens to examine global performances of Shakespeare onstage and onscreen. Featuring chapters on modernist adaptations, global cinema, multilingual productions and Shakespeare in translation, the volume also includes short histories of adaptations of Shakespeare in Southeast Asia, Latin America, the Arab world, India, Iran, Afghanistan and the Farsi-speaking diaspora. Finally, thematically organized case studies apply the methodologies outlined to analyse key productions"-- Provided by publisher.
