Summary

"This book examines the genre of Shakespeare-for-children, looking at both adaptations of Shakespeare's plays, and children's novels in which he appears as a character. Hateley considers the extent to which nineteenth-century and recent uses of Shakespeare coincide with, and even produce, an "ideal" gendered reader. Underpinning Hateley's argument is a feminist politics that contests the gender roles made available to men and women within the bounds of normative patriarchy."--BOOK JACKET.
