Summary:

The series this volume belongs to profiles people who have had the greatest influence on the interpretation, understanding, and reception of Shakespeare, both in Britain and internationally. The goal is to widen the sense of who has contributed to Shakespeare's afterlives by including not only actors and scholars but novelists, poets, playwrights, and composers. Each volume highlights a particular cluster of issues, or a period of time. British and US scholars here look four women of the Victorian period who served as actresses, writers, editors, critics, feminists, wives, daughters, sisters in the bardosphere.
