Shakespeare / Text sets new agendas for the study and use of the
Shakespearean text. Written by 20 leading experts on textual
matters, each chapter challenges a single entrenched binary - such
as book/theatre, source/adaptation, text/paratext, canon/apocrypha,
sense/nonsense, extant/ephemeral, material/digital and
original/copy - that has come to both define and limit the way we
read, analyze, teach, perform and edit Shakespeare today. Drawing
on methods from book history, bibliography, editorial theory,
library science, the digital humanities, theatre studies and
literary criticism, the collection as a whole proposes that our
understanding of Shakespeare - and early modern drama more broadly
- changes radically when 'either/or' approaches to the
Shakespearean text are reconfigured. The chapters in Shakespeare /
Text make strong cases for challenging received wisdom and offer
new, portable methods of treating 'the text', in its myriad
instantiations, that will be useful to scholars, editors, theatre
practitioners, teachers and librarians.
