    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    The first full-length study of gender performance in East and Southeast Asian Shakespeare productions, this book re-situates gender theory within new performance contexts, forms and communities, exploring the performativity of gender in East and Southeast Asian Shakespeare performances. It explores the ways in which performances of gender produce the terms through which intercultural engagements with Shakespeare take place, as theatre practitioners negotiate gender representations and relations as the means through which to negotiate the legacy of westernisation in their theatre practices. Ultimately, this book proposes new ways for thinking about feminist theories in performances and contexts based outside the West—even as it remains informed and influenced by feminist theories originating from within the West—and envisions future opportunities for feminist theorising through negotiations with intercultural theatre performances of Shakespeare in Asia.
