Shakespeare Quarterly Open Review
Posted by Kathleen Fitzpatrick | Filed under announcement
MediaCommons is very proud to be collaborating for a second year with Shakespeare Quarterly on the open review of essays under consideration for publication in their special issue on Shakespeare and Performance. As special issue editor Sarah Werner reports,
The essays cover a range of interesting subjects: a film about a Northern Ireland prison adaptation of Macbeth; Othello in 1903 Japan; Merchant of Venice in post-war West Germany; prophecy as a trope for performance; political theatre as staged by the RSC’s most recent stagings of the Histories; and a review of Ninagawa Yukio’s recent Doctor Faustus.
Discussion will be open to registered users for six weeks; further instructions for participation are available on the review site. Please stop by and join the discussion!
This is great! I’ve emailed my departmental listserv to alert them to this project.
