註釋
One of Shakespeare s final plays,
The Tempest
is often considered a jewel in the canon of English literature. Mythic, impassioned characters dictate the action, all of which takes place on a moody, windswept island far from the shores of Great Britain.
'The Tempest' and Its Travels
considers the rich legacy of this play s productions abroad. Distinguished contributors explore
The Tempest
s contemporary translations at the hands of actors, directors, and writers from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean to North and South America. Matching the eclectic nature of the play itself, '
The Tempest' and I
ts Travels
departs from traditional casebook models, bringing together an innovative collection of critical and creative readings, as well as historical images of the play s productions. The book will provide fruitful reading for scholars and students in a variety of disciplines.
This is an ambitious, bold, and imaginative collection that truly becomes something greater than even the sum of its impressive parts. David Scott Kastan, Columbia University"
