How can we adapt those plays to address current environmental crises?This is the first book to fuse Shakespearean ecocriticism with adaptation studies. It is a single critical and contextual resource for students, teachers and practitioners embarking on an in-depth exploration of ecological approaches to Shakespeare and adaptation. The book provides critical insight into ecological performance practices and accessible contextual information for ecocriticism, early modern environmental cultures and theatre-making.This guide offers:- Primary texts from the early modern period to the present, covering themes such as weather, botany, agriculture, fertility, land rights, animal and human relationships, metamorphosis and adaptation;- A focus on 3 of the most studied and adapted plays, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, King Lear and The Tempest, as a basis for the wider application of ecological adaptive principles to Shakespeare;- A full range of environmental references in each focus play through innovative Eco-Tables;- Concise summaries of literary ecocriticism in relation to each key text;- Sustained attention to performance and creative writing as ecocritical interventions;- The first dedicated chapter in the field offering conceptual and practical resources for staging your own Shakespearean eco-adaptation;- A glossary of key terms and links to resources;- An accompanying companion website featuring additional resources.Shakespeare, Ecology and Adaptation: A Practical Guide provides a pedagogic pathway and a ready-made syllabus for teachers.
