This book argues that Shakespeare and various cultures of celebrity
have enjoyed a ceaselessly adaptive, symbiotic relationship since
the final decade of the sixteenth century, through which each
entity has contributed to the vitality and adaptability of the
other. In five chapters, Jennifer Holl explores the early modern
culture of theatrical celebrity and its resonances in print and
performance, especially in Shakespeare's interrogations of this
emerging phenomenon in sonnets and histories, before moving on to
examine the ways that shifting cultures of stage, film, and digital
celebrity have perpetually recreated the Shakespeare, or even the
#shakespeare, with whom audiences continue to interact. Situated at
an intersection of multiple critical conversations, this book will
be of great interest to scholars and graduate students of
Shakespeare and Shakespearean appropriations, early modern theater,
and celebrity studies.
