The book explores the dynamic interplay between culture and value in the modern era, focusing on Shakespeare's enduring influence. By integrating social policy, anthropology, and economics, it analyzes how Shakespeare's texts resonate within contemporary culture, shaping current perceptions of cultural value. It moves beyond previous debates on Shakespeare's status, illustrating his dual role as both an artistic resource and a commercial entity. The examination includes the complexities surrounding 'value' and 'culture' and the impact of government and institutions on the dissemination of his works.
