How can we tune into the ecological dynamics of Shakespeare's plays? How can we adapt those plays to address current environmental crises?
This is the first book to fuse Shakespearean ecocriticism with adaptation studies. It is a single critical and contextual resource for students, teachers and practitioners embarking on an in-depth exploration of ecological approaches to Shakespeare and adaptation. The book provides critical insight into ecological performance practices and accessible contextual information for ecocriticism, early modern environmental cultures and theatre-making. This guide offers: - Primary texts from the early modern period to the present, covering themes such as weather, botany, agriculture, fertility, land rights, animal and human relationships, metamorphosis and adaptation;- A full range of environmental references in each focus play through innovative Eco-Tables;
- Concise summaries of literary ecocriticism in relation to each key text;
- Sustained attention to performance and creative writing as ecocritical interventions;
- The first dedicated chapter in the field offering conceptual and practical resources for staging your own Shakespearean eco-adaptation;

- An accompanying companion website featuring additional resources. Shakespeare, Ecology and Adaptation: A Practical Guide provides a pedagogic pathway and a ready-made syllabus for teachers.
