Posted on Tuesday 30 April 2024

Warm congratulations to Lauren Working on the publication of her new introduction to 'The Tempest' for Oxford World's Classics.

In her new introduction to The Tempest, Lauren offers a fresh look at Shakespeare's play through plantation, enchantment, and fragmented objects. She draws on everything from Jacobean colonial treatises to songs to contemporary feminist artwork to explore how a play written in the aftermath of English colonialism could nonetheless contain radical possibilities for imagining other ways of living.
