This doctoral project examines radio productions of Shakespeare's plays, focusing on BBC adaptations from 1922 to the present. It examines the different ways these adaptations transform a play text intended for the stage into radio, not only through words but also non-verbal sound systems, such as effects, music, microphone positioning and stereo sound. It also carries out 'close listening' of the adaptations, comparable to the way play texts are examined by close reading. It then analyses how these respond to the rhetorical and aural aspects of the original works. The project demonstrates how radio adaptations, being solely verbal and aural, preserve part of the authentic contemporary experience of going to hear, rather than see, a play, and shows how they constitute a vital, hitherto critically neglected resource for analysing the rhetorical mechanics of Shakespeare's plays and for reassessing the aural dimension and experience of the originals. The project locates the BBC adaptations within the wider critical history of Shakespeare reception, and studies a tradition of Shakespearean performance that has been virtually inaudible to academics. In addition, this project has already led to the BBC digitising productions that have only been held on quarter inch tape until now, a format that degenerates over time. Therefore it is helping to preserve what could otherwise become a lost Shakespeare archive.

该博士项目研究莎士比亚戏剧的广播制作，重点关注 1922 年至今的 BBC 改编作品。它研究了这些改编将舞台剧文本转化为广播的不同方式，不仅通过文字，还通过非语言声音系统，如效果、音乐、麦克风定位和立体声。它还对改编作品进行“仔细聆听”，类似于通过仔细阅读来检查戏剧文本的方式。然后分析这些如何回应原作的修辞和听觉方面。该项目展示了广播改编，仅是口头和听觉，如何保留部分真实的当代聆听而不是观看戏剧的体验，并展示它们如何构成一个至关重要的、迄今为止被严重忽视的资源，用于分析莎士比亚戏剧的修辞机制和重新评估原作的听觉维度和体验。该项目将 BBC 的改编作品置于更广泛的莎士比亚接受批评历史中，并研究学术界几乎听不到的莎士比亚表演传统。此外，该项目已经使 BBC 的作品数字化，而这些作品迄今为止仅保存在四分之一英寸的磁带上，这种格式会随着时间的推移而退化。因此，它有助于保存可能会丢失的莎士比亚档案。
