Shakespeare and Scotland is a timely collection of new essays in
which leading scholars on both sides of the Atlantic address a
neglected national context for an exemplary body of dramatic work
too often viewed within a narrow English milieu or against a broad
British backdrop. These essays explore, from a variety of critical
perspectives, the playwright's place in Scotland and the place of
Scotland in his work. From critical reception to dramatic and
cinematic adaptation, the contributors engage with the complexity
of Shakespeare's Scotland and Scotland's Shakespeare. The influence
of Scotland on Shakespeare's writing, and later on his reception,
is set alongside the dramatic effects that Shakespeare's work had
on the development of Scottish literature, from the Globe to
globalisation, and from Captain Jamy and King James to radical
productions at the Citizens' Theatre in Glasgow. -- .
