Description


Dr. Matthieu Chapman previews his forthcoming book, Shakespeare and Antiblack World-making, in which reflects on the fields of Pre-Modern Critical Race Studies and Early Modern Studies. He discusses why he portrays Shakespeare as the ultimate colonizer, his sentiments about the ideal of ‘reading generously” and its connection to universality, and how the field of Early Modern Studies was built on the denials of the very concept of race.
