Did Shakespeare really join John Fletcher to write Cardenio, a lost play based on Don Quixote? In 2009, the world's first academic symposium dedicated to the "lost play" was convened in New Zealand. Since then, a flurry of activity has taken place, helping to confirm the play's place in the literary canon. Drawing on recent scholarship and organized around the first full-scale production of Gary Taylor's adaptation and recreation of the Jacobean play, these sixteen essays offer a timely exploration of the idea that the play was not "lost" but was instead deliberately "disappeared" because of its controversial treatment of race, homosexuality, and gender.

Breaking new ground, this collection gives equal attention to Shakespeare, Cervantes, and Fletcher. With an emphasis on the importance of theatrical experiment and performance, a copy of the script and photographic record of Taylor's production, and historical research by respected scholars in the fields of early modern England and Spain, this book will make a bold and definitive statement about the collaborative nature of Cardenio.
