Description: The International Shakespeare Association invites you to Stratford-upon-Avon and London for its Tenth World Shakespeare Congress: ‘Creating and Re-Creating Shakespeare’ The 2016 World Shakespeare Congress – four hundred years after the playwright’s death – will celebrate Shakespeare’s memory and the global cultural legacy of his works. Uniquely, ambitiously, fittingly, this quatercentenary World Congress will be based in not just one but two locations: in Shakespeare’s birthplace, and final resting-place, Stratford-upon-Avon; and in the city where he made his name and where his genius flourished—London. The 2016 hosts – in Stratford, the Royal Shakespeare Company, the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, and the University of Birmingham’s Shakespeare Institute; in London, Shakespeare’s Globe and the London Shakespeare Centre, King’s College London – look forward to welcoming delegates from around the world to share in a range of cultural and intellectual opportunities in the places where Shakespeare was born, acted, wrote and died.

Description: Today, six institutions in the United Kingdom and United States stand out as the main repositories of the pre-1642 quartos: the Bodleian Library of the University of Oxford, the British Library, the University of Edinburgh Library, the Folger Shakespeare Library, the Huntington Library, and the National Library of Scotland. The Shakespeare Quartos Archive has been established as the result of joint support from the US National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), and the UK Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC). The University of Oxford is acting as lead institution in the United Kingdom. The Folger Shakespeare Library and the Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities are acting as partner lead institutions in the United States. The six institutional content providers are joined as well by the Shakespeare Institute of the University of Birmingham for user evaluation. Through this international collaboration, many of the earliest Shakespeare quartos are now freely available for in-depth study to students of Shakespeare across the globe. The Shakespeare Quartos Archive expands the British Library's "Shakespeare in Quarto" website into an online collection reproducing at least one copy of every edition of William Shakespeare’s plays printed in quarto before the theatres closed in 1642. Joined to this resource is a prototype of an interactive interface and toolset aimed at facilitating scholarly research, performance studies, and new pedagogical applications derived from detailed examination and comparison of the quartos. Tools and functions include the ability to: overlay text images, compare images side-by-side, search full-text, mark and tag text images with user annotations, create public or private sets of annotations, create exhibits or character cue line lists, and download and print text and images. The interface prototype is at present fully functional for one play, Hamlet. The prototype is best viewed using the Firefox web browser, version 3.0 or higher. Many features have been tested and will also run on Internet Explorer versions 6, 7, and 8. Digitized images of all thirty-two pre-1642 copies of Hamlet held by participating libraries have undergone full-text transcription and encoding by staff at the Oxford Digital Library. The prototype has been assessed using professionally facilitated experimentation coordinated by the British Library, evaluation by graduate students and faculty at the Shakespeare Institute of the University of Birmingham, and evaluation by readers, staff, and secondary school teachers at the Folger Shakespeare Library.

This first-ever national tour of one of the world’s most influential books celebrates 400 years of Shakespeare and his legacy. The Durham is the only location in Nebraska for the First Folio! tour. In conjunction with the traveling exhibition from the Folger Shakespeare Library, The Durham Museum will also exhibit, A Thing Inspired: The Enduring Legacy of William Shakespeare, featuring some never-before-seen pieces from The Durham Museum’s Byron Reed Collection. A Thing Inspired draws objects and documents from the collection including a later edition of the Folio published in 1876 that speaks to the popularity of Shakespeare’s works, and also shows how later editors tried to change or “enhance” his plays.
