O knihe

This interdisciplinary book of twelve chapters explores not only Shakespeare, but also more than Shakespeare, including the contemporary adaptation of plays and novels represented on screen, stage, and streaming media. It analyzes reinterpretations by directors like Spielberg and Coen, and applies Ecocriticism to uncover ecological and moral themes. From overlooked characters like Rosaline to the historical imagination in All Is True, the book probes power, gender, and tragedy. Case studies include Julius Caesar interpreted in Taiwan’s Caesar’s Maze (a collaboration with Peking Opera and Kunqu Opera), Shakespearean echoes in Netflix’s Copycat Killer and Love, Death + Robots, and posthuman futures in Atwood’s Oryx & Crake. It also explores how theater, museums, and AI reshape cultural memory, and how law, race, and technology intersect in Killers of the Flower Moon and Black Mirror. The global tours of Mamma Mia! and Once in Taiwan highlight transnational storytelling extending beyond more than Shakespeare.
