Green Shakespeare by Gabriel Egan

Green Shakespeare by Gabriel Egan

Pushing ecocriticism beyond the typical boundaries of nature writing, this interdisciplinary account introduces one of the most lively areas of Shakespeare studies and presents a convincing case for his continuing relevance to contemporary theory.

'Egan's enthusiasm for his subject is infectious.. this intriguing book offers more proof, if any where needed, of Shakespeare's continuing relevance to the 21st century.' – www.britishtheatreguide.info/

'Egan's purpose is to read Shakespeare in an entirely new context. I hope he succeeds in his purpose and that his book will be widely read and its lessons understood.' – Renaissance Quarterly Review
