It contains chapters on 20 specific critical practices, each grounded in analysis of a Shakespeare play. These practices range from foundational approaches including character studies, close reading and genre studies, through those that emerged in the 1970s and 1980s that challenged the preconceptions on which traditional liberal humanism is based, including feminism, cultural materialism and new historicism. Perspectives drawn from postcolonial, queer studies and critical race studies, besides more recent critical practices including presentism, ecofeminism and disability all receive detailed treatment. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn addition to its coverage of distinct critical approaches, the handbook contains various sections that provide non-specialists with practical help: an A-Z glossary of key terms and concepts, a chronology of major publications and events, an introduction to resources for study of the field and a substantial annotated bibliography.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEvelyn Gajowski \u003c\/b\u003eis Barrick Distinguished Scholar and Professor of English Emerita at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, USA.
