The book analyzes treatments of the plays in a range of styles-staged performances directed by Michael Boyd with the Royal Shakespeare Company (2000-2001) and Nicholas Hytner at the National Theatre (2003, 2005), the BBC's Hollow Crown series (2012, 2016), the RSC and BBC adaptations of Wolf Hall and Bring Up the Bodies (2013, 2015), and a contemporary reinterpretation of the canon, Mike Bartlett's King Charles III (2014, 2017).This book will be of great interest to scholars and students of Shakespeare, theatre, and politics. 262 pp. Englisch.…
