This book considers Shakespeare-for-children, looking at adaptations of his plays, and children's novels in which he appears. Drawing on feminist theory and sociology, Hateley demonstrates how this genre utilizes the ongoing cultural capital of "Shakespeare," and the pedagogical aspects of children's literature to perpetuate anachronistic forms of identity and authority.
