دانلود کتاب Shakespeare Studies Vol. 38

Shakespeare Studies is an international volume published yearly in hard cover that contains essays and studies by critics and cultural historians from both hemispheres. Although the journal maintains a focus on the theatrical milieu of Shakespeare and his contemporaries, it also is concerned with Britain's intellectual and cultural connections to the continent, its socio-political history, and its place in the emerging globalism of the period. In addition to articles, the journal includes substantial reviews of significant publications dealing with these issues, as well as theoretical studies relevant to scholars of early modern literature. Volume XXXVIII features another of the journal's ongoing series of Forums on an issue of importance to Renaissance studies. Organized and introduced by Greg Colon Semenza, this Forum, "After Shakespeare and Film," includes the interdisciplinary perspectives of nine contributors on the positioning of Shakespeare studies in digital and other contemporary technologies. The volume also features an article on representing "blackness" in Shakespearean productions from 1821 to 1844, and another on the influence of nineteenth-century melodrama on the Shakespearean critical tradition, as well as a review article on "Shakespeare and the Gothic Strain." Reviews in this issue address such disparate topics as Shakespeare and the problem of adaptation, Renaissance culture and the rise of the machine, and locating privacy in Tudor England.
