The plays of Shakespeare and his contemporaries continue to inspire
fresh interpretations in every genre and medium. Reinventing the
Renaissance: Shakespeare and his Contemporaries in Adaptation and
Performance offers new perspectives on the ways in which writers,
critics, directors, artists, and other creative practitioners have
used Renaissance drama to address current concerns and reach new
audiences. As well as exploring the fortunes of Shakespeare and his
contemporaries in more expected contexts, such as film and theatre,
these essays examine the relationship between the plays and new
social media, detective fiction, translation, ballet, and
illustration. The collection also reconsiders the boundary which
separates critical and creative responses to Shakespeare by
including explorations of 'creativity' in Shakespeare's
biographers, as well as a creative revisioning of Macbeth. Written
by an international team of scholars, this accessible and
innovative volume will provide a valuable resource for all readers
and researchers interested in the creative reception of Renaissance
English drama.
