Performing Transversally

Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on Bryan Reynolds' transversal theory, this work provides innovative analyses of Shakespeare's plays, including Hamlet and Othello, while exploring their adaptations across various media. Collaborating with others, Reynolds critiques traditional interpretations, addressing themes of cultural difference, authorship, and representation. He introduces an 'investigative-expansive mode' and 'transversal poetics' that advocate for a more interconnected and subjective approach to criticism, aiming to reshape future literary and cultural scholarship on Shakespeare.
