When we as Shakespeare scholars, teachers, readers, and theatregoers, think about Shakespeare as being &#8216;good for you,&#8217; for whom do we mean exactly? What does it mean to give Shakespeare as a &#8216;gift&#8217; to students and what do we expect in return?. . . Barnes&#8217;s central argument is that embracing a transcendental Shakespeare allows these films to erase cultural and racial differences. &#8216;Shakespeare&#8217; serves to deflect attention away from the social injustices that create difference, on the individual&#8217;s responsibility to &#8216;redeem&#8217; themselves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congratulations to Todd Barnes (Literature), whose recent book, Shakespearean Charity and the Perils of Redemptive Performance (Cambridge, 2020) was included as one of ten works included in their &#8220;This Year&#8217;s Contribution to Shakespeare Studies,&#8221; published by the Shakespeare Survey.
