Appropriating Shakespeare argues that the vibrant history of Pyramus and Thisbe as an independent text affirms the place of artist as both consumer and producer of Shakespeare. The playlet's four-century history is one that identifies Shakespeare's value as a transformative agent of aesthetic inquiry.
