• Sommario/riassunto: This book gives Asia's Shakespeares the critical, theoretical, and political space they demand, offering rich, alternative ways of thinking about Asia, Shakespeare, and Asian Shakespeare based on Asian experiences and histories. Challenging dominant critical and theoretical structures, it demonstrates how Shakespeare helps articulate Asianess. Many productions are brought to critical attention for the first time, offering new methodologies and approaches across disciplines, and developing a more inflected interpretative dialogue with other areas of Shakespeare studies. The volume explores examples from areas including Japan, India, Taiwan, Korea, Indonesia, China, and the Philippines.
