Why is it important?
One of the first studies to take an individual Shakespearean drama and consider its impact in a range of European countries. Includes a timeline listing the most significant manifestations of the play from the first productions to the present.
Perspectives
Co-editing and contributing to this volume was both pleasurable and instructive, a real education in the rich diversity of different national and regional takes on Shakespeare and his presence in different media as diverse as internet memes and postage stamps.
