Textual and Theatrical Shakespeare: Questions of Evidence is a collection of essays by ten critics who approach Shakespeare's plays from a variety of positionsliterary and textual commentary, performance criticism, social history, cultural theory, and theatre history. The contributors reflect and reflect upon the different kinds of evidence available to us from Shakespeare's various incarnations as historical subject and as "our contemporary," as well as from Shakespeare's amphibious occupation of both "the stage and the study."
This book had its origins in the work of a group of McGill Shakespeareans, under circumstances described in the statement of the director, John Ripley, just below. I am grateful to the group, including Patrick Nielson and Denis Salter as well as the four whose essays are included here, for inviting me to join with them in their work and to undertake this book and for helping me in all the stages leading to its realization. My thanks go also to Sarah Stanton for some shrewd editorial advice early on and to Thomas Postlewait, whose generous intelligence is reflected throughout.
