Shakespeare and Queer Theory is an indispensable guide on the
ongoing critical debates about queer method both within and beyond
Shakespeare and early modern studies. Clearly elucidating the
central ideas of the theory, the field's historical emergence from
feminist and gay and lesbian studies within the academy, and
political activism related to the AIDS crisis beyond it, it also
illuminates current debates about historicism and embodiment.
Through a series of original readings of texts including Othello,
The Merchant of Venice, and Venus and Adonis, as well as film
adaptations of early modern drama including Derek Jarman's The
Tempest and Edward II, Gus Van Sant's My Own Private Idaho, Baz
Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet, and Julie Taymor's Titus, it illustrates
the value of queer theory to Shakespeare scholarship, and the value
of Shakespearean texts to queer theory.
