Description

Explore the foundational connection between Western drama and Japanese literature with The Japanese Shakespeare. This work by Gallimore provides the first book-length English study focused on Tsubouchi Shoyo and his approach to translating Shakespeare. As a central figure in modern Japanese culture, Tsubouchi Shoyo (1859-1935) played a major role in how Shakespearean works were received and adapted for a new audience. This book examines the theory and practice behind Tsubouchi's translation methods. It looks at how he navigated the differences between Shakespeare's original rhetoric and the linguistic requirements of his native literature. By analyzing his specific strategies for bridging these cultural and linguistic gaps, the text argues for Tsubouchi's significant status as the Japanese Shakespeare. This is an essential resource for scholars interested in translation studies, Japanese literary history, and the global impact of Shakespearean drama.
