Floating daggers, enchanted handkerchiefs, supernatural storms, and
moving statues have tantalized Shakespeare's readers and audiences
for centuries. The essays in Shakespeare's Things: Shakespearean
Theatre and the Non-Human World in History, Theory, and Performance
renew attention to non-human influence and agency in the plays,
exploring how Shakespeare anticipates new materialist thought,
thing theory, and object studies while presenting accounts of
intention, action, and expression that we have not yet noticed or
named. By focusing on the things that populate the plays-from
commodities to props, corpses to relics-they find that canonical
Shakespeare, inventor of the human, gives way to a lesser-known
figure, a chronicler of the ceaseless collaboration among persons,
language, the stage, the object world, audiences, the weather, the
earth, and the heavens.
