Shakespeare in Our Time

Published with the Shakespeare Association of America, Shakespeare in Our Time offers lead essays by the distinguished scholars who have served as presidents of the Association over the past two decades. They introduce a range of topics: text, performance, gender, sexuality, the body, history, religion, biography, and global and digital Shakespeare. Each of their essays is counterpointed and complemented by a satellite of shorter contributions by other scholars, new and established.

Shakespeare in Our Time represents the shared commitment of its authors and of the Shakespeare Association of America to advancing our understanding of Shakespeare's works, his times, and his afterlife in literary, theatrical, and public culture. This intellectually vibrant and diverse book reflects current debates in the field of Shakespeare studies and points to its possible futures.
