Book Synopsis

Shakespeare in Succession approaches the question of Shakespeare’s relevance by positioning the poet as a participant as well as an object of adaptive translation. The volume considers Shakespeare from cultural, spatial, temporal, and linguistic points of view by studying how his work is transformed into other languages and cultures.



Trade Review

“Shakespeare in Succession successfully overcomes the traditional division between those who perform and those who study Shakespeare. Highlighting their shared concerns and interests, the book seeks to deconstruct this counterproductive gulf by bringing together the perspectives of theatrical practitioners, of translators, and of literary scholars coming from an impressively diverse array of cultures and traditions. A significant contribution to the global study of Shakespeare and translation.” Oana-Alis Zaharia, University of Bucharest and author of Cultural Reworkings and Translations in/of Shakespeare's Plays
