This volume takes up the challenge embodied in its predecessors,
Alternative Shakespeares and Alternative Shakespeares 2, to
identify and explore the new, the changing and the radically
'other' possibilities for Shakespeare Studies at our particular
historical moment. Alternative Shakespeares 3 introduces the
strongest and most innovative of the new directions emerging in
Shakespearean scholarship - ranging across performance studies,
multimedia and textual criticism, concerns of economics, science,
religion and ethics - as well as the 'next step' work in areas such
as postcolonial and queer studies that continue to push the
boundaries of the field. The contributors approach each topic with
clarity and accessibility in mind, enabling student readers to
engage with serious 'alternatives' to established ways of
interpreting Shakespeare's plays and their roles in contemporary
culture. The expertise, commitment and daring of this volume's
contributors shine through each essay, maintaining the progressive
edge and real-world urgency that are the hallmark of Alternative
Shakespeares. This volume is essential reading for students and
scholars of Shakespeare who seek an understanding of current and
future directions in this ever-changing field. Contributors
include: Kate Chedgzoy, Mary Thomas Crane, Lukas Erne, Diana E.
Henderson, Rui Carvalho Homem, Julia Reinhard Lupton, Willy Maley,
Patricia Parker, Shankar Raman, Katherine Rowe, Robert Shaughnessy,

Shakespeare and Digital Pedagogy is an international collection of
fresh digital approaches for teaching Shakespeare. It describes 15
methodologies, resources and tools recently developed, updated and
used by a diverse range of contributors in Great Britain,
Australia, Asia and the United States. Contributors explore how
these digital resources meet classroom needs and help facilitate
conversations about academic literacy, race and identity, local and
global cultures, performance and interdisciplinary thought.
Chapters describe each case study in depth, recounting needs,
collaborations and challenges during design, as well as sharing
effective classroom uses and offering accessible, usable content
for both teachers and learners. The book will appeal to a broad
range of readers. College and high school instructors will find a
rich trove of usable teaching content and suggestions for mounting
digital units in the classroom, while digital humanities and
education specialists will find a snapshot of and theories about
the field itself. With access to exciting new content from local
archives and global networks, the collection aids teaching,
research and reflection on Shakespeare for the 21st century.
The Arden Research Handbook of Shakespeare and Adaptation explores
the dynamics of adapted Shakespeare across a range of literary
genres and new media forms. This comprehensive reference and
research resource maps the field of Shakespeare adaptation studies,
identifying theories of adaptation, their application in practice
and the methodologies that underpin them. It investigates current
research and points towards future lines of enquiry for students,
researchers and creative practitioners of Shakespeare adaptation.
The opening section on research methods and problems considers
definitions and theories of Shakespeare adaptation and emphasises
how Shakespeare is both adaptor and adapted.A central section
develops these theoretical concerns through a series of case
studies that move across a range of genres, media forms and
cultures to ask not only how Shakespeare is variously transfigured,
hybridised and valorised through adaptational play, but also how
adaptations produce interpretive communities, and within these
potentially new literacies, modes of engagement and sensory
pleasures. The volume’s third section provides the reader with
uniquely detailed insights into creative adaptation, with writers
and practice-based researchers reflecting on their close
collaborations with Shakespeare’s works as an aesthetic, ethical
and political encounter. The Handbook further establishes the
conceptual parameters of the field through detailed, practical
resources that will aid the specialist and non-specialist reader
alike, including a guide to research resources and an annotated
bibliography.

"Like the artists studied here, we pick and choose our
Shakespeares, and through that labor another story emerges. Frozen
in time on the page or screen, some of those collaborations
continue to speak, but denuded of their immediate moment and
surroundings; we are left to supplement the traces. In recovering
that past, the present takes on greater clarity and contrast. But
the proof must be in the telling. A writer lifts a pen. Enter the
multiple forces political and economic, psychological, formal, and
technical that serendipitously transform imagination into memory.
Let the collaborative play begin." from the IntroductionFocusing on
key writers, actors, theater directors, and filmmakers who have
kept Shakespeare at the center of their endeavors over the past two
hundred years, Collaborations with the Past illuminates not only
the playwright's work but also the choices and responsibilities
involved in re-creating culture, and the ingenuity and peril of the
artistic process. By concentrating on rich yet problematic
instances of Shakespeare's reanimation in such quintessentially
modern forms as the novel and film, from Sir Walter Scott's
Kenilworth to Kenneth Branagh's Henry V, Diana E. Henderson
sketches a complex history of the pleasures and difficulties that
ensue when Shakespeare and modern artists collaborate.Working with
texts across the entire range of Shakespeare's career, Henderson
demonstrates through detailed analyses of novels including Jane
Eyre and Mrs. Dalloway as well as filmed, televised, and staged
performances that art (even in the newest media) cannot avoid
collaborating with the past. Only by studying that collaborative
process can we comprehend Shakespeare and Anglo-American culture."

Shakespeare Studies is a peer-reviewed volume published annually in
hard cover featuring the work of performance scholars, literary
critics and cultural historians across the globe. The journal
focuses attention primarily on Shakespeare and his contemporaries,
but embraces theoretical and historical studies of socio-political,
intellectual and artistic contexts that extend well beyond the
early modern English theatrical milieu in both space and time. In
addition to articles, Shakespeare Studies offers unique
opportunities for extended intellectual exchange through its
thematically-focused forums, and includes substantial reviews of
significant publications. An international Editorial Board of
distinguished scholars maintains the quality of each annual volume
so that Shakespeare Studies may serve as a reliable resource for
all students of Shakespeare and the early modern period - for
research scholars, certainly, but also for teachers, actors and
directors.
