"Post-
Hamlet
: Shakespeare in an Era of Textual Exhaustion" examines how postmodern audiences continue to reengage with
in spite of our culture’s oversaturation with this most canonical of texts. Combining adaptation theory and performance theory with examinations of avant-garde performances and other unconventional appropriations of Shakespeare’s play,
Post-
Hamlet examines Shakespeare’s
as a central symbol of our era’s "textual exhaustion," an era in which the reader/viewer is bombarded by text—printed, digital, and otherwise. The essays in this edited collection, divided into four sections, focus on the radical employment of
