Shakespeare and the Problem of Adaptation

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Shakespeare's plays continue to be circulated on a massive scale in a variety of guises - as editions, performances, and adaptations - and it is by means of such mediation that we come to know his drama. This title addresses fundamental questions about this process of mediation, making use of the fraught category of adaptation.
