English Faculty / Oxford World's Classics Shakespeare Webinar Series with Professor Emma Smith

In this free webinar series, Shakespeare expert Professor Emma Smith will be discussing a different Oxford World's Classics Shakespeare title each month.

Professor Smith will be in conversation with the writers of the new introductions specially commissioned for this series, discussing the play and how we might approach it differently in the 21st century.

This month, Professor Smith will be discussing The Tempest with Lauren Working, Lecturer in Early Modern Studies at the University of York.

The event is run by Oxford University's English Faculty in collaboration with Oxford University Press, the publishers of the Oxford World's Classics series.

She has written the OUP book Shakespeare’s First Folio: Four Centuries of an Iconic Book (2nd edition, 2023), and the Sunday Times bestseller This Is Shakespeare (2019), and is currently editing the new Arden Twelfth Night.
