Featuring case studies, essays, and conversation pieces by scholars
and practitioners, this volume explores how Indian cinematic
adaptations outside the geopolitical and cultural boundaries of
India are revitalizing the broader landscape of Shakespeare
research, performance, and pedagogy. Chapters in this volume
address practical and thematic concerns and opportunities that are
specific to studying Indian cinematic Shakespeares in the West. For
instance, how have intercultural encounters between Indian
Shakespeare films and American students inspired new pedagogic
methodologies? How has the presence and popularity of Indian
Shakespeare films affected policy change at British cultural
institutions? How can disagreement between eastern and western
perspectives on the politics of a Shakespeare film become the site
for productive cross-cultural dialogue? This is the first book to
explore such complex interactions between Indian Shakespeare films
and Western audiences to contribute to the assessment of the new
networks that have emerged as a result of Global Shakespeare
studies and practices. The volume argues that by tracking critical
currents from India towards the West new insights are afforded on
the wider field of Shakespeare Studies - including feminist
Shakespeares, translation in Shakespeare, or the study of music in
Shakespeare - and are shaping debates on the ownership and meaning
of Shakespeare itself. Contributing to the current studies in
Global Shakespeare, this book marks a discursive shift in the way
Shakespeare on Indian screen is predominantly theorised and offers
an alternative methodology for examining non-Anglophone cinematic
Shakespeares as a whole.

Drawing on both historical analysis and theories from the modern
affective sciences, Shakespeare and Disgust argues that the
experience of revulsion is one of Shakespeare's central dramatic
concerns. Known as the 'gatekeeper emotion', disgust is the
affective process through which humans protect the boundaries of
their physical bodies from material contaminants and their social
bodies from moral contaminants. Accordingly, the emotion provided
Shakespeare with a master category of compositional tools - poetic
images, thematic considerations and narrative possibilities - to
interrogate the violation and preservation of such boundaries,
whether in the form of compromised bodies, compromised moral actors
or compromised social orders. Designed to offer both focused
readings and birds-eye coverage, this volume alternates between
chapters devoted to the sustained analysis of revulsion in specific
plays (Titus Andronicus, Timon of Athens, Coriolanus, Othello and
Hamlet) and chapters presenting a general overview of Shakespeare's
engagement with certain kinds of prototypical disgust elicitors,
including food, disease, bodily violation, race and sex disgust.
Disgust, the book argues, is one of the central engines of human
behaviour - and, somewhat surprisingly, it must be seen as a
centrepiece of Shakespeare's affective universe.
