- 'Shakespearean Celebrity in the Digital Age' represents the culmination of several years of research into the nature of William Shakespeare's legacy in contemporary popular culture. The monograph’s central configuration of the Shakespearean actor as the site of adaptive encounter synthesised critical approaches from performance, film, star, and adaptation studies. Its focus on digital culture — the first sustained study of this kind in Shakespeare and adaptation studies — meanwhile analysed a large variety of social media and other such native internet texts in terms of both their meaning but also the nature of their creation and circulation.
