In this free webinar series, Shakespeare expert Professor Emma Smith will be discussing a different Oxford World's Classics Shakespeare title each month. Emma will be in conversation with the writers of the new introductions specially commissioned for this series, discussing the play and how we might approach it differently in the twenty-first century.
The event is run by Oxford University's English Faculty in collaboration with Oxford University Press, the publishers of the Oxford World's Classics series.
Emma Smith is Professor of Shakespeare Studies at Hertford College, Oxford, and the General Editor for the Oxford World’s Classics Shakespeare. She has written the OUP book Shakespeare’s First Folio: Four Centuries of an Iconic Book (2nd edition, 2023), and the Sunday Times bestseller This Is Shakespeare (2019), and is currently editing the new Arden Twelfth Night.
