Preview Screening Shakespeare in the Twenty-First Century

Description:
This bold new collection surveys the rich field of Bardic film representations, from Michael Almereyda's Hamlet and the BBC "Shakespea(Re)-Told" season to Michael Radford's The Merchant of Venice and Peter Babakitis' Henry V. The volume offers in-depth analyses of major and obscure productions, touching on advertisements, appropriations, postcolonial reinventions, and mass media citations, arguing that Shakespeare is a magnet for debate over style, literary authority, nationality, ethnicity, gender, and romance. Consideration the Derry Film Initiative Hamlet, the New Zealand The Maori Merchant of Venice, and the television documentary In Search of Shakespeare, this collection innovatively assesses the continuing relevance of Shakespeare in his many local and global screen incarnations.
