ENG.2057 Reading Shakespeare
This course will focus on close reading of three plays by Shakespeare, examining the rich possibilities inherent in the text from various perspectives: the English major's critical approach, the scholar's concern with text, the Elizabethan audience's cultural expectations, the actor146s conception of a character, the director's wider view of the play, and the playwright's all-encompassing vision of humanity. NOTE: This counts as a major author course.
