Shakespeare and the Cultural Olympiad: Contesting Gender and the British Nation in the BBC's The Hollow Crown L. Monique Pittman, Andrews University Abstract As part of the 2012 Cultural Olympiad celebrating both the Queen's Diamond Jubilee and the London Olympics, the BBC launched a season of programs, entitled Shakespeare Unlocked, most notably presenting the plays of the second tetralogy in four feature-length adaptations released under the unifying title The Hollow Crown. These plays so obviously engaged with the question of English nationalism suited a year in which the United Kingdom wrestled with British identity in a post-colonial and post-Great Recession world. Through its adaptative and filmic vocabularies, however, The Hollow Crown advances a British nationalism unresponsive to the casualties — often women and ethnic minorities — incurred over the course of Britain's self-formation and acts of self-defining.

  • Linguaculture 1, 2014
    LINGUACULTURE 1, 2014 THE HOLLOW CROWN:SHAKESPEARE, THE BBC, AND THE 2012 LONDON OLYMPICS RUTH M ORSE Université-Paris-Diderot Abstract During the summer of 2012, and to coincide with the Olympics, BBC2 broadcast a series called The Hollow Crown, an adaptation of Shakespeare’s second tetralogy of English history plays. The BBC commission was conceived as part of the Cultural Olympiad which accompanied Britain’s successful hosting of the Games that summer. I discuss the financial, technical, aesthetic, and political choices made by the production team, not only in the context of the Coalition government (and its attacks on the BBC) but also in the light of theatrical and film tradition. I argue that the inclusion or exclusion of two key scenes suggest something more complex and balanced that the usual nationalism of the plays'; rather, the four nations are contextualised to comprehend and acknowledge the regions – apropos not only in the Olympic year, but in 2014's referendum on the Union of the crowns of England/Wales and Scotland. Keywords: Shakespeare, BBC, adaptation, politics, Britishness During the summer of 2012, to coincide with the London summer Olympics, BBC2 broadcast a series called The Hollow Crown, an adaptation of Shakespeare’s second tetralogy of English history plays. An additional series, Shakespeare Unlocked, accompanied each play with a program fronted by a lead actor discussing the play and the process, illustrated by clips from the plays in which they had appeared (“The Hollow Crown”). The producer was the Neal Street Production Company in the person of Sam Mendes, a well-known stage and cinema director, celebrated not least for an Oscar for American Beauty, a rare honour for a first-time film director.

    Issue #109 July 2016 2015 Orphaned Rhino Calf Finds Mate in Bokkie ost Oasis residents will remember the lovely story that we had in our February 2016 issue about the baby rhino who was abandoned by his mother. Named Osita, which is of Nigerian origin and M means “from today onwards it will be better”, the white rhino calf was rescued soon after being born on New Year’s Eve last year when his mother mistook another calf for her own and abandoned him. He has been reared by a team of careers who have been with him 24/7. It was decided to bring in a goat to try to teach the little rhino calf how to graze. Bokkie the goat came from a local farm and has now formed a special friendship with her big friend. She was very scared when she arrived with these big eyes. Now they are two peas in a pod, and if he goes somewhere without her, she screams blue murder. I just love this unique story and will continue to monitor it as time goes by, as I would be over the moon when he is re-introduced into the wild. This will hopefully happen when he is about 3 years old. That would be a very special achievement from a very devoted group of people. Jack Boddington Editor From the Manager’s Desk he safest subject to ever discuss is the only turn left as they exit weather as witnessed in the stunning and go around the circle T musical “My Fair Lady” which we have just should they wish to seen at the Artscape.
