Abstract:

With its roots deep in ancient narrative and in various reworkings from the
late medieval and early modern period, Shakespeare’s "Romeo and Juliet" has
left a lasting trace on modern European culture. This volume aims to chart the
main outlines of this reception process in the broadest sense by considering
not only critical-scholarly responses but also translations, adaptations,
performances and various material and digital interventions which have, from
the standpoint of their specific local contexts, contributed significantly to
the consolidation of "Romeo and Juliet" as an integral part of Europe’s
cultural heritage. Moving freely across Europe’s geography and history, and
reflecting an awareness of political and cultural backgrounds, the volume
suggests that Shakespeare’s tragedy of youthful love has never ceased to
impose itself on us as a way of articulating connections between the local and
the European and the global in cases where love and hatred get in each other’s
way. The book is concluded by a selective timeline of the play’s different
materialisations.
