Unifying past scholarship with vital queer theory, this collection reveals necessary insights into our evolving relationship with Shakespeare ... This collection fervently reminds us that our largely underused queer imaginations may find productive new avenues to explore. * Shakespeare Bulletin * Through its insightful and apt discussions of Shakespeare's plays and poems, this volume offers specialists of early modern queer studies plenty to reflect upon. It will also be of great interest to readers who are not already conversant with queer theory. * Cahiers Elisabethains *
