Written by international Shakespearians who are also scholars of the Cold War, the essays assembled here consider representative events, productions and performances as cultural politics, international diplomacy and sites of memory, and show how they inform our understanding of the political, economic, even military, dynamics of the post-war global order. The volume explores the political and cultural function of Shakespearian celebration and commemoration, but it also acknowledges the conflicts they generated across the European Cold War 'theatre', examining the impact of Cold War politics on Shakespearian performance, criticism and scholarship. Drawing on archival material, and presenting its sources both in their original language and in translation, it offers historically and theoretically nuanced accounts of Shakespeare's international significance in the divided world of Cold War Europe, and its legacy today. . 410 0$aGlobal Shakespeares,$x2947-891X 606 $aEuropean literature$yRenaissance, 1450-1600 606 $aLiterature, Modern$y20th century 606 $aEuropean literature 606 $aEarly Modern and Renaissance Literature 606 $aTwentieth-Century Literature 606 $aEuropean Literature 615 0$aEuropean literature 615 0$aLiterature, Modern 615 0$aEuropean literature. 615 14$aEarly Modern and Renaissance Literature. 615 24$aTwentieth-Century Literature. 615 24$aEuropean Literature. 676 $a809 702 $aSheen$b Erica$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKarremann$b Isabel$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255233803321 996 $aShakespeare in Cold War Europe$92499975 997 $aUNINA
