It puts Kate Manne's ground-breaking analysis of misogyny in conversation with Shakespeare to highlight cultural and social norms in the performance of his dramatic works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe cultural expectations surrounding women in Shakespeare's England are analysed through critical feminist readings of \u003ci\u003eHamlet, Othello, The Merchant of Venice, A Midsummer Night's Dream \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eThe Rape of Lucrece\u003c\/i\u003e. These readings offer audiences tools to recognize how the conclusions to many of Shakespeare's plays, in restoring social order, also contribute to misogyny and violence against women. Contributors consider Queens in Shakespeare, race in \u003ci\u003eThe\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eMerchant of Venice\u003c\/i\u003e, misogynoir, violence against Indigenous women and girls, maternal absence and public punishment. \u003ci\u003eShakespeare and Early Modern Misogyny\u003c\/i\u003e asks a number of vital questions. How does the performance of misogyny onstage encourage its practice among audience members? How does contemporary misogyny relate to an era when the sexes were \u003ci\u003enot\u003c\/i\u003e considered equal? How does misogyny reinforce the male\/female binary in a space where sex, gender and race were \u003ci\u003eall\u003c\/i\u003e performed? In providing answers and critical engagement with these questions, contributors encourage us to re-examine the production of misogyny and its mediation through multiple identities in Shakespeare.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eShannon Kelley\u003c\/b\u003e, Associate Professor of English, Fairfield University, USA.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePatricia Wareh\u003c\/b\u003e, Professor of English, Union College, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 June 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThe Arden Shakespeare\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781350603851\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e256\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55552935329932,"sku":"9781350603851","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/getimage_d855dd67-340d-450a-9e2c-bbed89b011b1.jpg?v=1788313679","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781350603851","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
