They argue that it was at this moment of remembering that 'global Shakespeare' first emerged in recognizable, if embryonic form. Despite a recent surge of interest in the Shakespeare Tercentenary, a great deal has been forgotten about this key moment in the history of the place of Shakespeare in national and global culture - much more than has been remembered. In addressing this the book offers new materials and discoveries about, and new interpretations of, the Tercentenary celebrations in Britain and in Australia and New Zealand, and reflects also on the long legacy of those celebrations"-- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on December 16, 2019) Subject Shakespeare, William, 1564-1616 -- Anniversaries, etc. Shakespeare, William, 1564-1616 -- Appreciation -- Great Britain Shakespeare, William, 1564-1616 -- Appreciation -- Australia Shakespeare, William, 1564-1616 -- Appreciation -- New Zealand SUBJECT Shakespeare, William, 1564-1616 fast Subject Shakespeare studies & criticism.
