Description
Summary:'Shakespeare and Queer Studies' offers an accessible, comprehensive, and non-polemical account of queer approaches to Shakespeare's plays and poems. Addressing the strategies and stakes of different modes of queer critique, it encourages readers to develop their own interpretive strategies for reading sexuality and gender in Shakespeare. Mario DiGangi demonstrates how concepts such as queer temporality, reproductive futurism, and intersectionality can provide new ways of understanding same-sex relations in Shakespeare.
