| contents | Shakespeare our contemporary in 2016: Margaret Atwood’s rewriting of The Tempest in Hag-Seed Sofía Muñoz-Valdivieso Lengua y Literatura Hag neo Seed Shakespeare The Tempest Margaret Atwood’s novel Hag-Seed (2016) is a retelling of The Tempest that transfers the actions from the magic is land of the origin al play to present- day Canada: the avant-garde artistic director of a Shakespearean Festival is ousted from his job by his more world-savvy deputy, lives in isolation for twelve years and plots his revenge, which will involve a staging of The Tempest at the local prison where he has be en teaching for some time as Mr Duke. Hag-Seed is part of a larger project of fictional retellings of the Bard’s plays conceived by Hogarth Press for the commemoration of the 400 th anniversary of his death, a moment when Shakespeare’s cultural capital seems to be circulating more energeti cally than ever. The present article analyses Hag-Seed as a neo-Shakespearean novel that is original in the double sense of the term that Atwood’s teacher Northrop Frye so frequently remarked: imaginative, innovative, and inventive but also true to its fountain and origins. 2017 artículo científico 1135-7789 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=333553631005 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3335 SEDERI Yearbook application/pdf Spanish and Portuguese Society for English Renaissance Studies SEDERI Yearbook (España) Num.27 |
