Dear ESRA Delegates,it is a pleasure to welcome you in Rome (and Roma Tre) for the 2019 ESRAconference of our association, its first time in a European capital city.Coincidental as this may be, it is quite ironic that at a time defined by ‘Brexit’ andresurgent nationalisms it is precisely the city of Rome that is endowed with thehonourable task of hosting our European conference on “Shakespeare’s EuropeanGeographies”. For, be it remembered, Rome was the place where the first ‘economic’Treaty for the foundation of the European Community (EEC) was sealed on the 25thof March, 1957.It is also significant that the image of ancient Rome as ‘World’ and ‘Time’, space andtemporality, universe and ruin, so many times addressed and questioned inShakespeare’s theatre, should meet a set of issues which are equally and increasinglychallenging in our own time. Ancient Rome stands out as a hovering latitude inShakespeare’s imagination. With its expanded and controversial geography itfunctions as a mirror for the Elizabethan growing imperial ambitions. It is connectedto Renaissance issues of transfer of learning and cultural power: genealogy, heritage,memory, and poetic immortality topoi. Rome’s mobile and multicultural geography,like Shakespeare’s Globe, was also tantamount to a theatrum mundi, an inclusiverepresentation of human action as it was defined by identity and otherness, bordersand elsewheres. This conference invites participants to address a topic –“Shakespeare’s European Geographies” – which cuts across the mainpreoccupations of our changing Europe, and which challenges us to meditate on thevery categories we use in interpreting the world and its perimeters.And since Rome has always been the city of spectacles as well as the repository ofinestimable artistic treasures, in order to celebrate our meeting in this city we offerESRA 2019 delegates a way of experiencing some of its multifarious facets. Notmany people outside Italy know that since 2003 Rome has added to its innumerableattractions a fascinating replica of an Elizabethan playhouse right at the heart of oneof its historical parks, Villa Borghese: thanks to an ongoing collaboration betweenthe playhouse and our Department at Roma Tre University, the Silvano Toti GlobeTheatre is official partner in this edition of the ESRA Conference and opens its gatesto delegates for a dedicated theatrical event. Furthermore, Rome as one of theearliest global city, is the right place to confront global Shakespeares and that is whywe have specially invited from the USA to the Roma Tre Palladium Theatre StephenWolfert with his one-person play, Cry Havoc, where he seamlessly interweavesShakespeare’s most famous speeches with personal experience to help us understandthe crises to be faced when people are recruited into the military but not ‘de-cruited’and reintegrated into civilian life. The fact that the title of his show is a quote fromJulius Caesar adds to the performance’s relevance for ESRA 2019. The Gallery ofMaps at the Vatican Museums ends the Roman programme in the very place where,with the Fall of the Roman Empire, the cultural geography of the world and the samenotions of centrality and elsewheres have been dramatically redrawn.So welcome to Rome: the ancient cosmopolitan city, and the Renaissance city, apalimpsestic space of ruins and re-inventive rebirth, namely the theatricalized physicaldisplay of the very notion of a hybridised Renaissance.

2019

ESRA 2019 will have a special focus on processes of remapping, with con-sequences for early modern discourses on borders, nations, territories, theworld. It will prompt discussions of the place held by such processes in theculture of the period, but it will also foreground the various ways in whichthey are relevant for current preoccupations and concerns.

As we know, early modern European geography was shattered by a seriesof disruptive events which resulted not just in a remapping of borders, na-tions, and world, but had a bearing in problematizing the very notion ofspace and the place human beings held in a changing order of the uni-verse. Discoveries of new lands and new perimeters, originating from a thirstfor knowledge, political ambition, wars, not to mention wars of religion andthe reshuffled and transversal geographies designed by faith in post-Refor-mation Europe, were such as to redefine the sense of belonging, physicallyas well as mentally, and spiritually.

Questions related to this topic are at the core of Shakespeare’s figurationsof multifaceted physical and mental landscapes. And the geographical turnof the past few decades has made us aware of the wide range of thematic,ideological, and theoretical issues related to it.

Our European contemporary geography, constantly redefined by new wallsas well as the trespassing movement of massive flows of migrant humanbeings, invites us to interrogate anew the heuristic and ethical potential ofthat turn; it also encourages us to bring to the fore and reassess the perva-siveness and problematics of the experience of exile, displacement and di-spossession in Shakespearean drama. Thus the topic should be foundengaging and compelling by the ESRA community, now that our geopoliticsand sense of belonging are being challenged and readjusted, daily, by thecrises of human mobility.

All in all the chosen topic should provide ample scope for epistemologicalapproaches as well as for discovering new proximities with the Souths of theworld and between Northern and Mediterranean seas, daily crossed and re-designed by thousands of stories of outcasts and shipwrecks.

The topic should also be useful for discovering new contiguities betweenpast and present. Ancient Rome, with its expanded geography, looms largeon Shakespeare’s imagination. Rome was a world-wide stage on which toproject the performances of the Elizabethans’ growing imperial ambitions,in a logic of translatio imperii, or of “cultural mobility” in the terms it is beingre-conceptualized nowadays. But Rome was also a global stage on whichto address issues as crucial as centre, periphery, edges, borders, landmarks,elsewheres, otherness, hybridity, cross-cultural encounters and dynamics.

Thus the topic suits productively the variety of Shakespeare’s geographies aswell as the chosen Roman venue.

• SILVANO TOTI GLOBE THEATRESince 2003 the Silvano Toti Globe Theatre has added to Rome’s crowdedcultural agenda with its Shakespearean summer programme that hasattracted an average of 70,000-80,000 spectators per season.Romans and visitors have acquired a habit of attending this outdoorplayhouse from June to October to celebrate the vibrancy of a richprogramme of Shakespeare plays in Italian translation, and enjoy arewarding participatory theatrical experience. That a replica of anElizabethan playhouse could be built in Italy’s capital city and in one of itshistorical parks, Villa Borghese’s garden, was an audacious idea by GigiProietti, a celebrated Roman actor, director and author, who is also its artisticdirector. The theatre was realized with the patronage of the FondazioneSilvano Toti and under the auspices of Walter Veltroni, Rome’s mayor at thetime. Built in solid French oak wood with a maximum height of 10 meters,an internal diameter of 23 meters and an external diameter of 33 meters (theouter circumference being 100 meters), the Silvano Toti Globe Theatre inRome can hold up to 1100 people and it is a unique performance space inthe rich and variegated context of the Roman architectural landscape.The Silvano Toti Globe Theatre is a partner of ESRA 2019 Conference.www.globetheatreroma.com

Above his grave, located along the Ostiense Way,about two kilometers outside the Aurelian Walls surrounding Rome,Constantine built a Basilica which was consecrated by Pope Sylvester in 324.Saint Paul Outside-the-Walls (Basilica di San Paolo Fuori le Mura) isnowadays one of the four major basilicas in Rome, and the second largestafter St. Peter's Basilica. It constitutes an extra-territorial complex,administered by an Archpriest.

Theatre Programme

Friday July, 12th Silvano Toti Globe TheatreLargo Aqua Felix (Piazza di Siena) - Villa Borghese

Open Rehearsal of LA BISBETICA DOMATAdirected by Loredana Scaramellawith Carlotta Proietti and Mauro Santopietro

A taste of Loredana Scaramella’s acclaimed production of La bisbeticadomata (The Taming of the Shrew) set in the years immediately preceding theSecond World War, when a company of Italian actors of the avanspettacoloputs on a play at the inn where a Fascist officer is staying for the night withhis squad. The aim is, apparently, that of playing a joke on a drunkentinker with anarchist sympathies who is taught a lesson on how to tamewomen. Music, dances and Italian songs of the Thirties are added to Sha-kespeare’s translated text and its speculation on the fragile human condition.

This theatrical event is part of the ESRA 2019 Programme. The Conferencebadge will be needed in order to attend the event.Please note: registered participants are provided with a free Globe Card al-lowing special discounts for the 2019 Summer Season (www.globetheatre-roma.com)
