Dr Anna Tso, Head and Associate Professor of the Department of English, recently co-published an edited volume titled Reinventing Shakespeare: Translation, Adaptation and Afterlives (Routledge, November 2026) with Dr Miriam Lau.
This book volume explores Shakespeare’s global impact beyond the Anglophone world, examining its translation and reception in East Asia, cross-cultural adaptations in former colonies, and plural afterlives through digital pedagogy and LGBTQ representations. Dr. Tso’s own chapter, “Female Voices and Gendered Discourses in Children’s Adaptations of Shakespeare,” shows how adaptations for children amplify marginalized voices and challenge traditional gender narratives.
