Shakespearean adaptations in East Asia

The last decade has witnessed a rapid increase in serious research on 'Shakespeare in Asia’ , yet most readers of the many new monographs and journal articles on the subject have hitherto not enjoyed access to the plays discussed because they have not been readily available in English. Indeed, an authoritativecollection of Asian Shakespeares has been long and eagerly awaited by many scholars and critics. This five-volume collection answers that need. It brings together newly prepared English translations of twenty-five Shakespearean adaptations and reworkings. Supplementing these new’ previously unpublished’ translations, each volume includes a separate critical introduction prepared for this collection by an expert volume editor, together with annotations. One or twophotographs accompany each introduction to support and illustrate the discussion.
