Celebrating this rich tradition, \u003ci\u003eThe Bard in the Borderlands: An Anthology of Shakespeare Appropriations en La Frontera\u003c\/i\u003e brings a wide range of Borderlands Shakespeare plays together for the first time in a multi-volume open-access scholarly edition. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This anthology celebrates the dynamic, multilingual reworking of canon and place that defines Borderlands Shakespeare, and it situates these geographically and temporally diverse plays within the robust study of Shakespeare’s global afterlives. The editors offer a critical framework for understanding the artistic and political traditions that shape these plays and the place of Shakespeare within the multilayered colonial histories of the region. Borderlands Shakespeare plays, they contend, do not simply reproduce Shakespeare in new contexts but rather use his work in innovative ways to negotiate colonial power and to envision socially just futures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40886519136353,"sku":"9780866988384","price":71.73,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_26978439.jpg?v=1721400587","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9780866988384-bard-in-the-borderlands","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
