Course Catalog Description:
This course is a sampling of Shakespeare's corpus designed for English majors and minors and for other students who wish to study his works in depth. Our goal will be to view these works simultaneously as cultural artifacts of sixteenth and seventeenth-century England and as enduring classics of world literature that seem to transcend their cultural moment. To this end, we will apply various biographical, social, linguistic, generic, theatrical, political, and intellectual contexts to the plays. We will attempt to understand how these documents from early modern England have spoken so profoundly about the enduring mysteries of human experience from the moment of their inceptive genesis to the present day. English majors/minors must take this course A-F only grading basis.

Class Description:
In this course, you'll learn how to read and comment upon seven or eight of Shakespeare's plays. We'll use our class meetings to discuss particular scenes and speeches chosen from the texts in Bevington's COMPLETE SHAKESPEARE, which everyone must bring to class. Video clips, along with brief explanatory lectures, will be used to guide you to the playwright's favorite themes. Fully two-thirds of your course grade will depend on your daily participation: taking quizzes based on study questions for each play, writing out memorized lines, and writing down your answers to impromptu questions relating to our discussions. The other third of your grade rests on two writing assignments, the first of which will be corrected and returned to you for revising. Even though this class is not officially "writing-intensive," everyone will be expected to write a term paper (1200-1500 words) in clear, idiomatic English, and its style can raise or lower its grade. If you dislike paying close attention to Shakespeare's text and memorizing occasional passages, you should avoid this course. If on the other hand you enjoy discussing and writing about Shakespeare's characters and quoting their language, this is the Shakespeare class for you.
