This eighth volume of The Shakespearean International Yearbook
presents a special section on 'European Shakespeares', proceeding
from the claim that Shakespeare's literary craft was not just
native English or British, but was filtered and fashioned through a
Renaissance awareness that needs to be recognized as European, and
that has had effects and afterlives across the Continent. Guest
editors Ton Hoenselaars and Clara Calvo have constructed this
section to highlight both how the spread of 'Shakespeare'
throughout Europe has brought together the energies of a wide
variety of European cultures across several centuries, and how the
inclusion of Shakespeare in European culture has been not only a
European but also a world affair. The Shakespearean International
Yearbook continues to provide an annual survey of important issues
and developments in contemporary Shakespeare studies. Contributors
to this issue come from the US and the UK, Spain, Switzerland and
South Africa, Canada, The Netherlands, India, Portugal, Greece,
France, and Hungary. In addition to the section on European
Shakespeares, this volume includes essays on the genre of romance,
issues of character, and other topics.

In this 2009 book Craig, Kinney and their collaborators confront
the main unsolved mysteries in Shakespeare's canon through computer
analysis of Shakespeare's and other writers' styles. In some cases
their analysis confirms the current scholarly consensus, bringing
long-standing questions to something like a final resolution. In
other areas the book provides more surprising conclusions: that
Shakespeare wrote the 1602 additions to The Spanish Tragedy, for
example, and that Marlowe along with Shakespeare was a collaborator
on Henry VI, Parts 1 and 2. The methods used are more
wholeheartedly statistical, and computationally more intensive,
than any that have yet been applied to Shakespeare studies. The
book also reveals how word patterns help create a characteristic
personal style. In tackling traditional problems with the aid of
the processing power of the computer, harnessed through computer
science, and drawing upon large amounts of data, the book is an
exemplar of the new domain of digital humanities.
