Interviews twenty-four prominent Shakespeare scholars about the books that have influenced their ideas, been the most useful in their work, and are just plain fun. They discuss their reasons for recommending the best known books in Shakespeare studies and also unearth nearly forgotten treasures that deserve a wide readership.
Shakespeare Scholars Speak interviews twenty-four of today’s most prominent Shakespeare scholars about the books that have influenced their ideas, been the most useful in their work, and are just plain fun. Among those interviewed are Sir Stanley Wells, Sir Jonathan Bate, Sir Brian Vickers, Ann Thompson, Virginia Mason Vaughan, George T. Wright, Lukas Erne, MacDonald P. Jackson, Peter Holland, James Shapiro, Katherine Duncan-Jones, and Barbara Hodgdon. Interview guests discuss their reasons for recommending the best known books in Shakespeare studies and also unearth nearly forgotten treasures that deserve a wide readership. The extensive bibliography doubles as a reading list of the most important works in Shakespeare studies past and present, and because some of those interviewed are also Shakespeare film scholars, a filmography lists the most important and interesting Shakespeare films along with other films that influenced Shakespeare filmmakers. The interviews are reprinted from Michael P. Jensen’s Talking Books column in the Shakespeare Newsletter.
