Description
Shakespeare's collaborations with modern artists have shaped his work and our understanding of culture. This book explores how the playwright's works have been reimagined in various forms, from novels to film, over the past two hundred years. Through detailed analyses of selected texts and performances, Diana E. Henderson examines the complex process of artistic collaboration with the past. By studying these interactions, we can gain a deeper understanding of Shakespeare and Anglo-American culture. By investigating the ways in which art has drawn upon the past, this book sheds light on the choices and responsibilities involved in re-creating culture through creative works.
