Comment: RE: SHK 3.0213 Response to Cheap Advice
Dear Hardy,
I have some information here that might be of interest to some members of the
network. Anne Marie Drew of the Naval Academy is editing a collection of
essays on the Shakespeare-Beckett connection. Fairleigh Dickinson Press is
interested, but they have told her that she needs more essays on from a
performance-oriented point of view. She writes,
"I am interested in essays that address ANY performance connections between
Shakespeare and Beckett. An essay could discuss recent Shakespearean produc-
tions that have been informed by Beckett. Or a director might write about his
or her own experience directing both Shakespeare and Beckett. The
possibilities are wide-ranging. The reader at Fairleigh Dickinson simply wants
`several essays on performance.'"
Normally, I would leap at the chance to publish on Shakespeare in performance,
but I'm just not a Beckett man and had to decline, but I did tell her I would
try to get the word out over SHAKSPER. Her mailing address is:
Anne Marie Drew
Dept of English
United States Naval
Academy Annapolis, MD 21402
(401) 267-3481
She also thinks her e-mail address is drew@norfolk, but she doesn't seem to be
absolutely sure, so I would suggest following up an e-mail message with a
letter if possible.
