[edit] CULTURAL SHAKESPEARE

This volume brings together a collection of Graham Holderness's writings on such topics as Shakespeare and national culture; the Shakespeare industry; and the 'Shakespeare Myth'.

THIS UNIQUE collection of seminal works includes essays in literature, theatre, film/media and cultural studies, and is an indispensable resource for studies in the 'Shakespeare industry'. This volume brings together for the first time a definitive collection of Graham Holderness's writings on Shakespeare and national culture and the 'Shakespeare Myth'. Published in books and journals between 1985 and 1997, these essays constitute a unique resource for the study of 'Shakespeare' as a cultural phenomenon or ideological apparatus, as distinct from Shakespeare the poet and playwright. These studies consistently look behind and beyond the 'plays', the narrowly defined forms of literary text, historical phenomenon and theatrical production, and recognise 'Shakespeare' wherever and whenever the authorial construction is manifested. The ultimate objective of their address is to cultural power, or the power of cultural politics. What, finally, does Shakespeare mean in historical and contemporary cultures?
