商品簡介
Flaherty, a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Sydney, examines three of Shakespeare's plays in performance in Australia: Hamlet, As You Like It, and A Midsummer Night's Dream. Each chapter begins with a brief review of the play's wider legacy in the Australian or international context, then explores cultural preoccupations that intersect with the play across recent Australian productions. The author's discussion combines speculations about cultural history with a detailed analysis of the practices of dramatic interpretation. The book is distributed in US by ISBS.
