The issue brings together the spirit of the past, the reception of the present, and the insights into the future through original research, critical reviews, and theoretical discussions.
The first section provides supplementary contributions to Shakespeare studies that appeared after the 400th anniversary of the publication of Shakespeare’s First Folio. While we know that early non-Anglophone encounters with Shakespeare were often employed among harmful colonizing practices, we also know that those encounters engendered messages of dissent against ideologies of supremacy and fostered the expression of localized narratives and traditions. The present volume is a continuation of this anniversary to celebrate Shakespeare and Shakespeare studies beyond the Anglophone world with our special issue, “Global Folios: Books about Shakespeare from around the World,” which aims to document and discuss secondary works on Shakespeare written in non-Anglophone countries.
The second section offers original research covering insightful analysis with astute application.
The third section is devoted to a keen discussion over narratives of liberal humanism, power and state, and the individual against free will.
