OuterSpeares: Shakespeare, Intermedia, and the Limits of Adaptation

Product description Review ' OuterSpears enriches the remarkable tradition of Shakespeare scholarship in Canada.... The book is highly interdisciplinary in character, making it an important contribution to the study of Shakespeare, adaptation, media, and contemporary culture.'--Aneta Mancewicz, English Studies in Canada vol 41:03:2015"Given the new technologies available (and coming), concepts of presence, virtuality, liveness, and even performance need to be considered anew when thinking about what constitutes an adaptation of a Shakespearean play. OuterSpeares goes a long way to filling this need, addressing it ably through its theoretical excursions and its wide range of case studies."--Linda Hutcheon, University Professor of English and Comparative Literature, University of Toronto"There are countless collections on Shakespeare's appropriations in and by many media, but none with this intermedial approach and theoretical framework. OuterSpeares is a book well worth reading."--Adam Hansen, Senior Lecturer in English Literature, Northumbria University About the Author Daniel Fischlin is a University Research Chair in the School of English and Theatre Studies at the University of Guelph.
