{"product_id":"9781350212008","title":"Re-imagining Shakespeare in Contemporary Japan : A Selection of Japanese Theatrical Adaptations of Shakespeare by Fumiaki Konno","description":"An anthology of three exciting Japanese adaptations of Shakespeare that engage with issues such as changing family values, racial diversity, the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and terrorism, together with a contextualizing introduction.   The anthology makes contemporary Japanese adaptations of Shakespeare by three independent theatre companies available to a wider English language audience. The three texts are concerned with the social issues Japan faces today and Japan's perception of its cultural history.  This unique collection is thus both a valuable resource for the fields of Shakespeare and adaptation studies as well as for a better understanding of contemporary Japanese theatre.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56298056352117,"sku":"9781350212008","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781350212008.jpg?v=1762782287","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781350212008","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
