A year ago we published “Defending Democracy in an Age of Sharp Power,” a Journal of Democracy book that draws on extensive research done over time by Forum @ NED -Francis Fukuyama says it’s “must-reading for anyone concerned about trends in global democracy” journalofdemocracy.org/books/defendin…

Going to do my best Dr. Peter Kirwan impression and introduce the articles briefly - but stay tuned for more detail in #ExtraCredit from Shakespeare Bulletin curated by the authors muse.jhu.edu/issue/53122

The issue opens with a brief introduction prompted by some of my disquiet about the exclusivity of the Royal Archives (and a confession about my incompetence using book snakes)

The first full article is by Erin J, unpicking both the significance and the neglect of Rachel Fane's archive, including letters and accounts illuminating domestic matters which have historically been treated as unimportant

Next is Anouska Lester on magic mirrors in the early modern performance archive, demonstrating the significance of mirror props in three early modern plays and flipping the 'performance as mirror' metaphor on its head

Next, Abbie W. takes us backstage at the Folger Shakespeare Library to show how a set of eighteenth-century theatrical receipts survived and what they can tell us about the role of Shakespeare in archival practices

next, Molly S recovers Langston Hughes and Dorothy Peterson's never-performed translation of Lope de Vega's 'Fuenteovejuna', mourning its unrealised potential and exploring how a 1920s adaptation could speak to our present

in her chapter, Dr. Janelle Jenstad revisits Jeanette Lambermont's 2001 production of 'Henry V' - a production that both queried the bias of wartime archives and became, by an accident of timing, a conductor for anxieties about contemporary warfare

And finally, Stephanie Shirilan explores the archival potential of air, finding that both matter and emotion linger and get 'stuck' in the atmosphere in Shakespeare's plays and asking how scholarship about performance archiving can take air into account
