Shakespeare Association of America Conference in Chicago 1995
 
**********************************************************
 
This conference includes a seminar (#31) on Shakespeare illustrations
hypertext, multimedia in the 20th Century.
 
"Imaginary Puissance: Picturing Shakespeare in the Twentieth Century"
A verbal-visual inquiry as it applies to Shakespeare, the seminar will
focus on art moving beyond the borders of text.  The discussion will
draw on twentieth-century illustrations and book arts, paintings and
photographs, comics and movies and interactive videos and hypermedia.
Participants may wish to consider the roles of pictures in transgressing
the text, in competing with the past, in reshaping the canon.
