Coppelia Kahn<\/p><\/div>\n

Bionote<\/strong><\/p>\n

Copp\u00e9lia Kahn is Professor of English, Emerita<\/em>, at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, and one of the earliest feminist critics of Shakespeare. Her first book, Man\u2019s Estate: Masculine Identity in Shakespeare<\/em> (1981), deals with the vicissitudes specific to masculine identity in patriarchal culture. In Roman Shakespeare: Warriors, Wounds, and Women<\/em> (1997), she identifies the wound as the contested, ambiguous site of virtus<\/em> in Shakespeare\u2019s Roman works.\u00a0 She has also co-edited six anthologies, among them Making A Difference: Feminist Literary Criticism<\/em> (1985) with Gayle Greene, which was translated into Chinese and Japanese, and most recently, with Clara Calvo, Celebrating Shakespeare: Commemoration and Cultural <\/em>Memory (Cambridge, 2016). She has published articles on Shakespeare\u2019s plays and poems, feminist theory, and Renaissance drama. Her research interests also extend to Shakespeare\u2019s place in American culture, the adaptation and rewriting of Shakespeare, and the cultures of commemoration. She has lectured widely in North America and Europe, and enjoyed visiting professorships at Yale university, l\u2019Universita\u2019 di Torino, and the University of British Columbia. Her honors include fellowships at the Huntington Library and the Folger Shakespeare Library. In 2008-9, she was president of the Shakespeare Association of America.<\/p>\n
