That this too solid flesh should melt?
This is the poster for the 2008 Australian and New Zealand Shakespeare Association (ANZSA) conference:
Possible topics might include, but are not limited to: Shakespeare and histories and theories of the body, representations of the body, the actor’s body, cultural appropriations, Shakespeare and the senses, phenomenology, embodiment and gender.
Pluses: it’s in New Zealand! Get thee to thy computer and write a proposal, if only so you have an excuse to go there and worship at the shrine of Peter Jackson.
Minuses: if Shakespeare weren’t already dead, I’d be very concerned for his health. I mean, he’s a marble torso with a dollop of entrails. Is it wrong that I find this just as disturbing as anything by Susini?
