This book explores how Bakhtin's ideas can illuminate the
compelling but uneasy fusion of Shakespeare and cinema. With a wide
variety of tones, languages, cultural orientations, and thematic
concerns, film directors have updated, translated, transposed,
fragmented, parodied, and geographically re-situated Shakespeare.
Keith Harrison illustrates how Bakhtin's interlinked writings in
various fields can fruitfully be applied to an understanding of how
the ongoing responsiveness of filmmakers to Shakespeare's
historically remote words can shape self-expressive acts of
co-authoring in another medium. Through the use of such Bakhtinian
concepts as the chronotope, heteroglossia, the carnivalesque, and
polyphony, Harrison details how filmmakers-faithful to their
specific cultures, genders, geographies, and historical
moments-dialogically locate their particularity through
Shakespeare's presence.
