Klappentext zu „Shakespeare as German Author “
Shakespeare as German Author, edited by John McCarthy, revisits in particular the formative phase of German Shakespeare reception 1760-1830. Following a detailed introduction to the historical and theoretical parameters of an era in search of its own literary voice, six case studies examine Shakespeare's catalytic role in reshaping German aesthetics and stage production. They illuminate what German speakers found so appealing (or off-putting) about Shakespeare's spirit, consider how translating it nurtured new linguistic and aesthetic sensibilities, and reflect on its relationship to German Geist through translation and cultural transfer theory. In the process, they shed new light, e.g., on the rise of Hamlet to canonical status, the role of women translators, and why Titus Andronicus proved so influential in twentieth-century theater performance.Contributors are: Lisa Beesley, Astrid Dröse, Johanna Hörnig, Till Kinzel, John A. McCarthy, Curtis L. Maughan, Monika Nenon, Christine Nilsson.

Rezension zu „Shakespeare as German Author “
"The collection as a whole appears well-structured, coherent and highly informative and should thus be added to any future reading done by those interested in German Shakespeare Studies and/or German Translation Studies." - in: Form for Modern Language Studies, Volume 55, Issue 2, April 2019"[Shakespeare as German Author] is ultimately an important and new approach to Shakespeare's reception in German culture. Shakespeare's plays are viewed as a complex case of cultural transfer in which the practices of translation, adaptation, and performances are embedded...this book [is] both rewarding and comfortable for scholars." - Peter Höyng , Emery University, in: Goethe Yearbook of North America, vol. 27 (2020), pp. 374-75
