Spectral Shakespeares: Media Adaptations in the Twenty-First Century

By Maurizio Calbi and M Calbi

Book Overview

Spectral Shakespeares is an illuminating exploration of experimental adaptations of Shakespeare on film, TV, and the web. Drawing on adaptation studies, media theory, and Derrida's work, the "Shakespeare" that emerges from these adaptations is a fragmentary and mediatized presence that leaves a mark on our contemporary mediascape.
