Shakespeare and Girls’ Studies argues that girls hold a central place in Shakespearean adaptation, taking as its subject the overlap between Shakespeare’s timeless girl heroines and contemporary popular culture that embraces figures like Juliet and Ophelia to understand and validate the experiences of girls.
