"The first book to fuse Shakespearean ecocriticism with adaptation studies. It is a single critical and contextual resource for students embarking on an in-depth exploration of ecological approaches to Shakespeare and adaptation, providing both critical insight into adaptive performance practices and accessible contextual information on the field of ecocriticism and early modern environmental cultures. It features primary early modern texts; an overview of key works of ecocriticism; a taxonomy of environmental references in Shakespeare's plays, and extracts from adaptations of King Lear, The Tempest and A Midsummer Night's Dream from around the world"--
