    Through the prism of intimacy, Burleigh sheds light on eighteenth and early-nineteenth-century American texts. This insightful study shows how the trope of the family recurred to produce contradictory images - both intimately familiar and frighteningly alienating - through which Americans responded to upheavals in their cultural landscape. 'Moving across a number of sophisticated theoretical and jurisprudential problems with great lucidity, Erica Burleigh's Intimacy and Family in Early American Writing returns to and reignites feminist debates about family figures in early American writing. The book engages a much more ambitious historical trajectory than similar works, demonstrating how debates about slavery repurposed an early national rhetoric of familial disunion, and nuancing our understanding of race in anti-abolitionist rhetoric. A fascinating and welcome intervention.' -Jordan Alexander Stein, Assistant Professor of English, Fordham University, USA.

    Shakespeare, Dissent and the Cold War is the first book to read Shakespeare's drama through the lens of Cold War politics. The book uses the Cold War experience of dissenting artists in theatre and film to highlight the coded religio-political subtexts in Hamlet, King Lear, Macbeth and The Winter's Tale. "Thomas has written a lively, intelligent, and interesting study of the politics of Shakespearean drama and its relationship to the literature and theater of Cold-War (and post-Cold-War) Europe. He examines Shakespeare's deliberate employment of religio-political codes that call attention to the persecution of English Catholics, the repressive practices of the English government and the socially disruptive effects of religious antagonisms. In analyzing Russian film versions of Hamlet and King Lear as indirect criticisms of the Soviet system, the Czech-English playwright Tom Stoppard's Cahoot's Macbeth in the context of post-1968 Czech political resistance, and Ingeborg Bachmann's poem 'Bohemia Lies on the Sea,' Thomas highlights the political potential of Shakespearean drama that can be translated into powerful political protest and analysis in changed (modern) circumstances." - Arthur Marotti, Wayne State University, USA.

    Shakespeare, Cinema and Desire explores the desires and the futures of Shakespeare's language and cinematographic adaptations of Shakespeare. Tracing ways that film offers us a rich new understanding of Shakespeare, it highlights issues such as media technology, mourning, loss, the voice, narrative territories and flows, sexuality and gender. "Shakespeare, Cinema and Desire is sophisticated, thought-provoking, and intellectually stimulating. Simon Ryle's relation of the Shakespearean text to later films is outstanding; he provides many compelling, unique readings of Shakespeare's language in specific adaptations and in the history of cinema itself. The book is an important addition to existing Shakespeare and film criticism that will appeal to Shakespearean scholars, teachers, and students." - Lisa Starks-Estes, University of South Florida, USA.

    This is the first scholarly study devoted to Shakespeare's girl characters and conceptions of girlhood. It charts the development of Shakespeare's treatment of the girl as a dramatic and literary figure, and explores the impact of Shakespeare's girl characters on the history of early modern girls as performers, patrons, and authors. "Deanne Williams ventures into largely unexplored territory in this fascinating and important study of girlhood and its implications in Shakespeare. The book is challenging, well argued and continuously interesting, and reveals something genuinely new about Shakespeare." - Stephen Orgel, J. E. Reynolds Professor in the Humanities, Stanford University, USA "With great lucidity and authority, yet a nicely light touch, Williams draws together an immense amount of research into the cultural history of pre-modern girlhood to frame original and insightful arguments, which are developed with impressive clarity. This outstanding book gave me a fresh perspective on ways of reading Shakespeare's girls and a new appreciation of some familiar works." - Kate Chedgzoy, Newcastle University, UK "Deanne Williams provides the first sustained account of "girlhood" in Shakespeare's plays, one that is performative rather than essentialist. Girl characters performed by boy actors, performances by girls in masques and other private theatricals, and girls as writers and performers inspired by Shakespeare's girls, are surveyed to show compellingly how "girlhood" emerged as a significant formation in the early modern period. From "la Pucelle" to the birth of baby Elizabeth at the close of Henry VIII, from Macbeth, who describes himself as a "baby of a girl," to the thirteen-year-old masque writer Lady Rachel Fane, Williams excavates a history that has long been ignored but has come into its own." - Karen Newman, Brown University, USA "Williams radically reframes common notions of girlhood as a marginal, interstitial state, interpreting it rather as the cultural site of creative and potentially radical possibilities. Moving from girls as characters in the Shakespeare canon to historical girls empowered by Shakespeare to perform and create roles for girls, Williams reveals how those roles can be innovative and liberating. Anyone interested in gender, in Shakespeare, or in Shakespeare's engagement with the problematic of gender will find this book fresh and compelling." - Coppelia Kahn, Professor of English and Gender and Sexuality Studies, Brown University, USA.

    This study emerges from an interdisciplinary conversation about the theory of translation and the role of foreign language in fiction and society. By analyzing Shakespeare's treatment of France, Saenger interrogates the cognitive borders of England - a border that was more dependent on languages and ideas than it was on governments and shorelines. 'A signal achievement - illuminating and engaging at every turn.' - Patricia Parker, Margery Bailey Professor of English and Dramatic Literature and Professor of Comparative Literature, Stanford University.

    The different versions of Hamlet constitute one of the most vexing puzzles in Shakespeare studies. In this groundbreaking work, Shakespeare scholar Terri Bourus argues that this puzzle can only be solved by drawing on multiple kinds of evidence and analysis, including book and theatre history, biography, performance studies, and close readings. "Bourus takes on the tripartite role of detective, historian, and theatrical laboratory technician in Young Shakespeare's Young Hamlet. Methodically, she dismantles fossilized assumptions about one of Shakespeare's greatest tragedies, leaving one to wonder how such a mess of ill- or unfounded propositions could have held currency for so long. Bourus's important book will change the face of Hamlet scholarship. When you get to her conclusion, you will say, with young Hamlet, 'ay, there's the point!'" - Regina Buccola, Associate Professor, Literature and Languages, Roosevelt University, USA and Scholar in Residence, Chicago Shakespeare Theater "For about two centuries we have been seeking answers to the various riddles surrounding the three texts of Hamlet. Previous commentators have worked from bibliographical, literary-historical, or theatrical perspectives and have not come up with fully satisfactory answers. However, Bourus combines all these approaches, since she is trained in all these areas, and comes up with surprising and very satisfactory answers. Anyone seriously interested in Hamlet must read this book." - William Proctor Williams, Adjunct Professor of English, University of Akron, USA, and author of An Introduction to Bibliographical and Textual Studies, 4th edition (2009) "A must-have, must-read book for any Shakespearean scholar, editor, theatre practitioner, teacher, and anyone whose work intersects all these areas, Young Shakespeare's Young Hamlet is, without question, a game-changer in studies of Shakespeare's most important and influential play. Disrupting our centuries-old assumptions about the three texts of Hamlet, Bourus dares to ask the questions that uncover a fresh, contemporary perspective on this play and teach us more about Hamlet than we thought possible." - Lori Leigh, Lecturer, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand "Bourus's book, crammed with astute observations, presents a vigorous challenge to orthodox views on the texts of Hamlet and on the provenance of the Ur-Hamlet. This is an important addition to scholarship on Shakespeare's best-known play." - MacDonald P. Jackson, Emeritus Professor of English, University of Auckland, New Zealand "A meticulous study of a long-standing issue, with a wonderfully firm conclusion." - Andrew Gurr, Professor Emeritus, University of Reading, UK "Figuring out the relationship between the first three editions of Hamlet, published in 1603, 1604-5, and 1623, is one of the most intractable problems in Shakespeare studies. Dates of printing tell us only the latest moment by which a play must have been written, and in search of the earliest origins of Hamlet Bourus brilliantly combines a fresh consideration of the historical evidence. Her startling conclusion is scrupulously grounded in a masterly synthesis of all that we know." - Gabriel Egan, Professor of Shakespeare Studies and Director of the Centre for Textual Studies, De Montfort University, UK.

    Making an important new contribution to rapidly expanding fields of study surrounding the adaptation and appropriation of Shakespeare, Shakespeare and the Ethics of Appropriation is the first book to address the intersection of ethics, aesthetics, authority, and authenticity. "This thoughtful, imaginative, and generous collection takes us beyond the simple identification of Shakespearean appropriation as a field of study in order to place Shakespeare at the center of present-day manifestations of empire, performance, and the humanities. Text, author, and reader form and inform each other in an ethical process, Rivlin and Huang suggest, that mutually constitutes subjectivity and ethical identity. Individual essays productively disagree about the degree of power afforded to each point of this triangular relationship - text, author, reader - but communicate an urgent and compelling need for adaptors, readers, and viewers to reflect upon what 'Shakespeare' means in each of these context and to consider the social and ethical stakes of each of these positions." - Sujata Iyengar, Professor of English, University of Georgia, USA "This theoretically-sophisticated, cosmopolitan, and forward-looking collection of essays simultaneously questions and celebrates the ethical implications of a manifest 'global Shakespeare.' Huang and Rivlin reimagine appropriation of Shakespeare as itself a form of intersubjective and intercultural dialogue, in the tradition of moral philosophers such as Buber and Levinas, as well as political theorists such as Appiah, Nussbaum, and Taylor. A truly international team of contributors addresses the moral stakes of practices such as translation and intercultural performance; new concepts of interpersonal agency, community, and relatedness serve to illuminate a remarkable array of recent creative adaptations of Shakespeare." - Patrick Gray, Lecturer in Shakespeare and Renaissance Literature, Durham University, UK.
