[EAN: 9780198183235], Neubuch, [PU: OUP Oxford], DRAMA / SHAKESPEARE, nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware -The century between the Restoration and David Garrick's Stratford Jubilee saw William Shakespeare's promotion from the status of archaic, rustic playwright to that of England's timeless Bard, and with it the complete transformation of the ways in which his plays were staged, published, andread. But why Shakespeare and what different interests did this process serve The Making of the National Poet is the first full-length study since the 1920s of the Restoration's and eighteenth century's revisions and revaluations of Shakespeare, and the first to consider the period's much-reviledstage adaptations in the context of the profound cultural changes in which they participate. Drawing on a wide range of evidence--including engravings, promptbooks, diaries, statuary, and previously unpublished poems, it examines how and why Shakespeare was retrospectively claimed as both arespectable Enlightenment author and a crucial and contested symbol of British national identity. Through engaging and informative analysis, Dobson's book provides the definitive account of the theater's role in establishing Shakespeare as Britain's National Poet. 280 pp. Englisch, Books<
