| book description |

Despite a recent surge of critical 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 â€“ much more than has been remembered. This book offers new archival discoveries about, and new interpretations of, the Tercentenary celebrations in Britain, Australia and New Zealand and reflects on the long legacy of those celebrations. This collection gathers together five scholars from Britain, Australia and New Zealand to reflect on the modes of commemoration of Shakespeare across the hemispheres in and after the Tercentenary year, 1916. It was at this moment of remembering in 1916 that â€˜global Shakespeareâ€™ first emerged in recognizable form. Each contributor performs their own â€˜antipodalâ€™ reading, assessing in parallel events across two hemispheres, geographically opposite but politically and culturally connected in the wake of empire.
