Victor Hugo and the Romantic Drama
My students have been a little skeptical, and we're looking forward to the second edition that reportedly takes account of the early critiques (namely that Erne claims to be establishing a model for how to read early printed Shax but doesn't really do it, except for a few limited examples in the final chapters). We found it very productive to speculate what, exactly, is going on in a reader's imagination when one reads the Folio -- and to think of the Folio as a reader's text -- but also hampered by the dearth of "case-studies" that one could use to find examples of readerly signs. I am also not sure that I'm convinced by the readerly signs, always, although I *am* convinced now that the folio texts are neither "performance" texts nor foul papers but texts composed "to the great varietie of readers."
