Sarah Neville
Sarah Neville is an associate professor of English and Theatre, Film and Media Arts
at the Ohio State University. She specializes in early modern English literature,
bibliography, theories of textuality and Shakespeare in performance, chiefly examining
the ways that authority is negotiated in print, digital and live media. She is an
assistant editor of the New Oxford Shakespeare (2016-17), for which she edited five plays in both old and modern-spelling editions,
as well as an associate coordinating editor of the Digital Renaissance Editions. She
regularly publishes on textual theory, digital humanities, pedagogy, and scholarly
editing. Neville’s book, Early Modern Herbals and the Book Trade: English Stationers and the Commodification
of Botany (Cambridge, 2022), demonstrates the ways that printers and booksellers of herbals
enabled the construction of scientific and medical authority in early modern England.
A theatre director and film artist who is a great believer in experiential learning,
Neville is the founder and creative director of Ohio State’s Lord Denney’s Players, an academic theatre company that enables students to see how technologies of textual
transmission have shaped the reception of Shakespeare’s plays.
