5.0 out of 5 stars
A scorching corker of joy,
By A Customer
This review is from: Shakespeare After Mass Media (Paperback)
There are lots of academic studies of Shakespeare in popular culture coming out at the moment, but many are written by people who wouldn't know popular culture if it banged on their door trying to sell them cookies. The contributors to this volume are intelligent deep cultured people but listen this does not HAVE to mean you don't know how the mass market thinks, and this team does. Laurie Osborne is divine on Shakespeare in Harlequin romances and Burt is at his leg-biting best on the strange eery tameness of Taymor's *Titus* movie. This book really advances the argument about what and how Shakespeare means in America today -- buy it.
