DESCRIPTION:CUGS' last speakers event of the term!\n\nStuart Elden is a Pr
 ofessor of Political Theory and Geography at the University of Warwick.\n\
 nLinking together territory and literature\, this is a must-come-to talk f
 or anyone interested in Geography\, Drama\, History\, Politics\, and Law.\
 n\n"The political\, economic and strategic aspects of territory are well k
 nown\, and many of Shakespeare's plays dramatise them – from the divisio
 n of the kingdom in King Lear\, to the question of property in land in Ric
 hard II\, the vulnerable territory of Hamlet's Denmark or Macbeth's Scotla
 nd\, and the colonial aspects of The Tempest. But other aspects of territo
 ry feature in Shakespeare's plays – the legal wrangling over possession 
 and succession in the opening scene of Henry V\, the geophysical in Henry 
 IV\, Part One and a small semantic shift in King John. Drawing especially 
 on these history plays\, and my previous work The Birth of Territory\, thi
 s talk will examine how Shakespeare can help us to understand territory in
  multiple ways."\n\nFree with a CUGS card\n£2 for non-members\n\nWednesda
