Public lecture: Re-Mapping Political Theology in Shakespeare and Early Modern Culture

The Orient Institute Beirut, Lebanon - part of the Foundation of German Humanities Institutes Abroad (DGIA) -, will be hosting a public lecture by François-Xavier Gleyzon (University of Central Florida), "Re-Mapping Political Theology in Shakespeare and Early Modern Culture", on 27 September 2011, 7.00 pm.

Quote: "The aim of this paper is to offer a critical insight into Shakespeare and political theology from ... the Middle Eastern point of view ... It ... offers specific ways of both understanding/penetrating and visualizing Shakespeare's imagined oriental world. The paper will conclude by considering how ... a developing globalization brought Shakespeare's stage into contact with Islam."
