| The rebuilding of the Globe theater (1599-1613) on London's Bankside, a few yards from the site of the playhouse in which many of Shakespeare's plays were first performed, ranks as one of the most imaginative enterprises of recent decades. The realization of the vision of Sam Wanamaker and his architect Theo Crosby has aroused intense interest among scholars and the general public worldwide. Shakespeare's Globe Rebuilt offers a fully illustrated account of the research that has gone into the Globe reconstruction, drawing on the work of leading scholars, theater people, and craftsmen to provide an authoritative view of the twenty years of research and the hundreds of practical decisions entailed. Edited by Mulryne, J. R., and Shewring, Margaret. Copyright 1997. ISBN: 0-521-59988-1. Paperback, 192 pages, 16 color illustrations. |
