Spectral Shakespeares is an illuminating exploration of recent,
experimental adaptations of Shakespeare on film, TV, and the web.
Drawing on adaptation studies and media theory as well as Jacques
Derrida's work, this book argues that these adaptations foreground
a cluster of self-reflexive "themes" - from incorporation to
reiteration, from migration to addiction, from silence to survival
- that contribute to the redefinition of adaptation, and
Shakespearean adaptation in particular, as an unfinished and
interminable process. The "Shakespeare" that emerges from these
adaptations is a fragmentary, mediatized, and heterogeneous
presence, a spectral Shakespeare that leaves a mark on our
contemporary mediascape.
