Exploring whether the impulse to adapt Shakespeare has changed over time, Bradley argues for restoring a sense of historicity to the study of adaptation. Bradley compares adaptations of King Lear from the seventeenth through the nineteenth centuries to twentieth-century rewritings of the play, suggesting modern Shakespeare adaptations represent a unique genre that permits playwrights to acknowledge their literary heritage while articulating more modern subject positions and participating in broader debates about art and society.

Lynne Bradley received her PhD from the University of Victoria, Canada. She works as an independent researcher in Toronto.
