| Summary: | "This book offers a comprehensive array of readings of 'skin' in Shakespeare, a term that embraces the human and animal, noun and verb. Deliberate in its reimagining of critical and theoretical categories such as queer theory, animal studies and indigenous studies, to name a few, Shakespeare / Skin intervenes to offer a wide range of methodological approaches grounded in antiracist practice. With contributors from across the world, readings are informed by an array of histories and shed light on how skin was understood in Shakespeare's time and at key moments during the past 400 years in different media and cultures"-- |
