"This strong and timely collection provides fresh insights into how Shakespeare's
plays and poems were understood to affect bodies, minds and emotions. Contemporary
criticism has had surprisingly little to say about the early modern period's investment
in imagining literature's impact on feeling. Shakespearean Sensations brings together
scholarship from a range of well-known and new voices to address this fundamental
gap. The book includes a comprehensive introduction by Katharine A. Craik and Tanya
Pollard and comprises three sections focusing on sensations aroused in the plays;
sensations evoked in the playhouse; and sensations found in the imaginative space
of the poems. With dedicated essays on Hamlet, Macbeth, Othello and Twelfth Night,
the collection explores how seriously early modern writers took their relationship
with their audiences and reveals new connections between early modern literary texts
and the emotional and physiological experiences of theatregoers"--
