Shakespeare’s plays have a long and varied performance history.
The relevance of his plays in literary studies cannot be
understated, but only recently have scholars been looking into the
presence and significance of animals within the canon. Readers will
quickly find—without having to do extensive research—that the
plays are teeming with animals! In this Handbook, Karen Raber and
Holly Dugan delve deep into Shakespeare’s World to illuminate and
understand the use of animals in his span of work. This volume
supplies a valuable resource, offering a broad and thorough
grounding in the many ways animal references and the appearance of
actual animals in the plays can be interpreted. It provides a
thorough overview; demonstrates rigorous, original research; and
charts new frontiers in the field through a broad variety of
contributions from an international group of well-known and
respected scholars.
