This fascinating and globally comprehensive volume guides the reader to re-read Shakespeare’s presence across media and cultures through current methodologies and delve into the many glocal repercussions of Shakespeare. Alexa Alice Joubin and the contributors of this volume deepen and enrich our contemporary understanding of Shakespeare.

Murat Ögütcü, Adiyaman University, Türkiye

This new volume, edited by Alexa Alice Joubin, is a superlative addition to the important methodological and analytical work being done around the concept of “global Shakespeares.” The structure as well as the content of the volume reflects the foundational notion of <i>heterotopia</i>, worlds within worlds, as essays on analytical and pedagogical methodologies for approaching Shakespeare on stage and screen coexist here with chapters focusing on diverse global regions and case studies ranging from Bollywood to Brazilian Zoom performances to comedic Canadian radio. The book embraces a polycentric multiculturalism that elucidates the crucial and ineluctable cross-cultural and trans-historical nature of Shakespeare in performance today, offering teachers and scholars multiple lenses through which to approach how and why the Bard functions in multifarious time-spaces.

A concise guide to global performances of Shakespeare, this volume combines methodologies of dramaturgy, film and performance studies, critical race and gender studies and anthropological thick description. This companion guides students from critical methodologies through big pictures of global Shakespeare to case studies that employ these methodologies. It uses a site-specific lens to examine global performances of Shakespeare on stage, on radio and on screen. As well as featuring methodological chapters on modernist adaptations, global cinema, multilingual productions and Shakespeare in translation, the volume includes short histories of adaptations of Shakespeare in Southeast Asia, Latin America, the Arab world, India, the Slavic world, Iran, Afghanistan and the Farsi-speaking diaspora. It uses these micro-historical narratives to demonstrate the value of local knowledge by analysing the relationships between Shakespeare and his modern interlocutors. Finally, thematically organized case studies apply the methodologies to analyse key productions in Brazil, Korea, Yemen, Kuwait, China and elsewhere. The final chapter considers pedagogical strategies in a global setting. These chapters showcase the how of global Shakespeare studies: how do minoritized artists and audiences engage with Shakespeare? And how do we analyse the diverse and polyphonic performances with an eye towards equity and social justice?
