Shakespeare in Parts - Palfrey, Simon (Fellow and Tutor in English, Brasenose College, Oxford) a Stern, Tiffany (Fellow and Tutor in English, University College, Oxford)

Shakespeare's drama originally circulated in the form of the individual actor's part, containing only a single character's speeches and cues. This collaboration of theatre history with literary criticism captures Shakespeare's development as a writer, showing how scripting and acting work together to produce characters of unprecedented immediacy.
