The Appropriation and Some Recent Uses of the Shakespeare Canon I: Jan Kott and Traditional Shakespeare Criticism*
Janja Ciglar-Žanić
Sažetak
The present essay attempts to examine the relation in which traditional Shakespearean criticism stands to some rival discursive praetices in the same area of study. Concentrating on the position
which Jan Kott's Shakespearean texts occupy in the Shakespearean universe of discourse, the author believes to discem the outlines of a hierarchical power configuration in this area, with traditional
Shakespearean criticism placed in a position of overdeterminatíon in relation to rival discursive practices and using representatively ideological strategies to protect its primacy in the appropriation
and the uses of the Shakespeare canon. The author claims the traces of a hegemonistic nature of traditional Shakespearean criticism are clearly revealed in the rhetorical cast of the admonitions levelled
at Jan Kott by prominent Shakespearean traditionalists. A few examples are briefly analyzed to demonstrate the point.
