About this book

This engaging study offers fresh readings of canonical Shakespeare plays, illuminating ways stagecraft and language of movement create meaning for playgoers. The discussions engage materials from the period, present revelatory readings of Shakespeare's language, and demonstrate how these continually popular texts engage all of us in making meaning.

Reviews

“Darlene Farabee’s new book contributes to this investigation, considering not only how Shakespeare establishes locations in his plays, but also how his audience perceives the mapping of his stage. … Farabee’s book is clear and engaging, its prose often luminous, and the questions it raises about the disorienting effects of theatrical experience – and the ways Shakespeare reassures or relocates his audience – are intriguing ones.” (Elizabeth Mazzola, Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 68 (4), 2015)
