Arden Shakespeare and Theory is a comprehensive exploration of the theoretical advancements that have shaped Shakespeare studies in recent years, as well as the emerging trends at the present moment. This series offers a thorough examination of specific theories, their key theorists and critics, their significance in Shakespearean studies, an analysis of their political, social, and economic contexts, and a wealth of recommended resources for further investigation.
Reception Theory provides readers with a distinctive perspective and insights into how audiences and readers have responded to Shakespeare's works throughout history and in the contemporary era. This study showcases how recent emphases on the roles of readers and spectators in the creation of meaning offer new and often thought-provoking ways of interpreting Shakespeare's works.
Within the framework of Reception Theory, a diverse range of plays, including "A Midsummer Night's Dream," "Hamlet," "The Tempest," "King Lear," and "Henry V," are analyzed as case studies. This approach allows for a deep exploration of early modern modes of interaction within the playhouse, as well as the more recent assumptions that underpin spectating and performing.
By examining these plays through the lens of Reception Theory, Arden Shakespeare and Theory offers a rich and multifaceted understanding of Shakespeare's artistry and his enduring impact on the world of literature and culture. This series is an invaluable resource for scholars, students, and enthusiasts alike, providing a comprehensive and accessible guide to the theoretical developments and receptions of Shakespeare's works.
