Explored in this essay collection is how Shakespeare is rewritten,
reinscribed and translated to fit within the local tradition,
values, and languages of the world's various communities and
cultures. Contributors show that Shakespeare, regardless of the
medium - theater, pedagogy, or literary studies - is commonly
'rooted' in the local customs of a people in ways that challenge
the notion that his drama promotes a Western idealism. Native
Shakespeares examines how the persistent indigenization of
Shakespeare complicates the traditional vision of his work as a
voice of Western culture and colonial hegemony. The international
range of the collection and the focus on indigenous practices
distinguishes Native Shakespeares from other available texts.
