ENG 3026 Shakespeare on Film

Through films or videotapes of Shakespeare's plays, we will explore how productions illuminate, enhance, or distort the script and how the change of medium makes different effects possible or even necessary. This course will examine interpretations of the text as well as foster awareness of dramatic and film technique. Previous study of Shakespeare is very helpful. This course may be used as an elective for the Film Studies Concentration. The course will culminate in a research paper. Prerequisite: completion of one 1000-level English course and one 2000-level English course or permission of instructor. (Fall)
