Shakespeare on European Festival Stages

Editat de Nicoleta Cinpoes, Florence March, Dr Paul Prescott
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 iul 2023
From the aftermath of World War II to the convulsions of Brexit, festivals have deployed Shakespeare as a model of inclusive and progressive theatre to seek cultural solutions to Europe's multi-faceted crises. Shakespeare on European Festival Stages is the first book to chart Shakespeare's presence at continental European festivals. It examines the role these festivals play in European socio-cultural exchanges, and the impact festivals make on the wider production and circulation of staged Shakespeare across the continent. This collection offers authoritative, lively and informed accounts of the production of Shakespeare at the following festivals: the Avignon Festival and Le Printemps des comédiens in Montpellier (France), the Almagro festival (Spain), Shakespeare at Four Castles (Czech Republic and Slovakia), the International Shakespeare Festival in Craiova (Romania), the Shakespeare festivals in Elsinore (Denmark), Gdansk (Poland), Gyula (Hungary), Itaka (Serbia), Neuss (Germany), Patalenitsa (Bulgaria), Rome and Verona (Italy).Shakespeare on European Festival Stages is essential reading for students, scholars and practitioners interested in Shakespeare in performance, in translation and in a post-national Shakespeare that knows no borders and belongs to all of Europe.

Recenzii

A superb and timely volume. Shakespeare on European Festival Stages introduces readers to a wide range of European Festivals, from the small and less well-known to the larger and more established. Written by authors who have extensive and intimate knowledge of these festivals, this book traces their development over time and the intersections between local, national and international contexts.
"Triumph my Britain, thou hast one to show / To whom all scenes of Europe homage owe. / He was not of an age but for all time!" Ben Jonson's famous eulogy in the 1623 edition of Shakespeare's works could well be the motto of this informative and inspiring volume of essays written and compiled by eminent international scholars of Shakespeare, published in the prestigious The Arden Shakespeare series. In twelve fascinating chapters, seventeen authors of Shakespeare on European Festival Stages show how the influence of the Bard can be seen in the second half of the twentieth century to the present day through a specific medium and genre, the performing arts festival.
