It takes as its premise that gender and sexuality studies are key to any interpretation of Shakespeare, be it his texts and their historical contexts, contemporary stage and cinematic productions, or adaptations from the Restoration to the present day. Approaching 'sex' from four main perspectives - heterosexuality, third-wave intersectional feminism, queer studies and trans studies - this book tackles a range of key topics, such as medical science, rape culture, the environment, disability, religion, childhood sexuality, race, homoeroticism and trans bodies. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe 12 essays range across Shakespeare's poems and plays, including the \u003ci\u003eSonnets\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Rape of Lucrece\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e Coriolanus\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eA Midsummer Night's Dream\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMeasure for Measure\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eRichard III\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Two Noble Kinsmen\u003c\/i\u003e.
