Summary
Digital Shakespeares from the Global South re-directs current conversations on digital appropriations of Shakespeare away from its Anglo-American bias. The individual essays examine digital Shakespeares from South Africa, India, and Latin America, addressing questions of accessibility and the digital divide. This book will be of interest to students and academics working on Shakespeare, adaptation studies, digital humanities, and media studies. Included in this volume, the chapter on "Finding and Accessing Shakespeare Scholarship in the Global South: Digital Research and Bibliography" by Heidi Craig and Laura Estill is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com. Amrita Sen is Associate Professor and Deputy Director, UGC-HRDC, University of Calcutta, India, and Affiliated Member of the Department of English. She has co-edited Civic Performance: Pageantry and Entertainments in Early Modern London (2020) and publishes essays and book chapters on East India Company women, Bollywood Shakespeares, and early modern ethnography.
