His performances in the theatre defined Shakespeare for a generation, and his transition to cinema brought his theatrical performativity to both silent and sound screens. This book, a collection of fifteen original essays on the film performances and stardom of John Barrymore, redresses this lack of scholarship on Barrymore by offering a range of varied perspectives on the actor's work. Looking at his performances and influence from the perspectives of gender studies, psychoanalysis, queer studies and performance analysis, \u003ci\u003eHamlet Lives in Hollywood\u003c\/i\u003e represents a major attempt by contemporary scholars to come to terms with the ongoing vitality of John Barrymore's work in our present day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Murray Pomerance\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474411398\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474411394\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50h x 6.20w x 0.70d","brand":"Murray Pomerance","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088347115775,"sku":"9781474411394","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0ec1d442-20da-4af5-81d9-15ad46d638ea.jpg?v=1769104353","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hamlet-lives-in-hollywood-murray-pomerance-9781474411394","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
