DiPietro, Cary

Full Research Description:
I received both my M.A. (1997) and Ph.D. (2002) in Shakespeare Studies from The Shakespeare Institute, University of Birmingham. I am the author of Shakespeare and Modernism (Cambridge UP, 2006) and of related articles on Shakespeare in such venues as New Theatre Quarterly, Shakespeare Survey and Shakespeare. I am also editor of Volume 9 in the forthcoming series Great Shakespeareans (Continuum) and contributor to the forthcoming Shakespeare Encyclopedia (Greenwood Press). I'm currently working on a visual history of scenography and design in English production of Shakespeare from 1660 to 1960. My research interests occur at the intersection of theatre history and performance theory with literary critical history and practice.
