Shakespeare 2016: Memoria di Roma

Andrew Hadfield and Patrick Spottiswoode (Director of Education at Shakespeare's Globe) discussed the significance of English representations of Rome as part of a performed reading from Shakespeare and from Nashe's The Unfortunate Traveller, "Apprehending Rome: the City in the English Mind's Eye" (16th April 2016). The event was held at the Teatro Palladium in the Università Roma Tre in front of a crowd of 200 people, as part of an international conference marking the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death, Shakespeare 2016: Memoria di Roma.
