Multimedia Shakespeare Editions: Making Shakespeare Accessible/Making an Accessible Shakespeare
Lior, Noam
Research in Drama Education, v25 n1 p125-142 2020
Multimedia Shakespeare apps include performance materials alongside Shakespeare's text. I examine two innovations across seven such digital Shakespeare projects: combination of Shakespeare performance with text, and the use of digital platforms to place Shakespeare text and performance literally at users' fingertips. Multimedia Shakespeare editions offer opportunities and challenges for artists, scholars, teachers, and learners. These projects have achieved impressive results by utilising the new opportunities afforded by emerging technologies. As multimedia editions develop, it becomes essential to discuss the responsibilities for editors and creators of such projects: how do we select materials, annotate, and frame an edition which includes both text and performance?
