"The Routledge Handbook of Shakespeare and Interface provides a ground-breaking investigation into the digital spaces where Shakespeare is transformed. While such media-specific operations may be largely invisible to the average reader or viewer, the interface properties of books, screens, and media can transform our cognitive engagement with Shakespeare. This volume considers contemporary debates and questions including how mobile devices mediate the experience of Shakespeare; the impact of rapidly evolving virtual reality technologies and the interface architectures which condition Shakespearean plays; and how design elements of hypertext, menus, and screen navigation operate within internet Shakespeare spaces. Charting new frontiers, this diverse collection delivers fresh insight into human-computer interaction and user-experience theory, cognitive ecology, and critical approaches as historical phenomenology. This volume also highlights the application of media and interface design theory to questionsrelated to the medium of the play and its crucial interface with the body and mind"--
