Shakespeare, the Renaissance and Empire presents Shakespeare as
both a local and global writer, investigating Shakespeare's
trans-cultural writing through the interrelations and interactions
of binaries including theory and practice, past and present,
aesthetics and ethics, freedom and tyranny, republic and empire,
empires and colonies, poetry and history, rhetoric and poetics,
England and America, and England and Asia. The book breaks away
from traditional western-centric analysis to present a universal
Shakespeare, exposing readers to the relevance and significance of
Shakespeare within their local contexts and cultures. This text
aims to present a global Shakespeare, utilizing a dual perspective
or dialectical presentation, mainly centred on questions of (1) how
Shakespeare can be viewed as both an English writer and a world
writer; (2) how language operates across genres and kinds of
discourse; and (3) how Shakespeare helps to articulate a poetics of
both texts (literature) and contexts (cultures). The book's
originality lies in its articulation of the importance and value of
Shakespeare in the emerging landscape of global culture.
