- Contents
- This seminar will introduce you to contemporary literary and cultural/media studies approaches as a means of understanding and re-evaluating Shakespeare’s works. The discussion will have a double focus, allowing us a) to examine Shakespeare’s writing style and the dramatic structure of the plays and b) to trace popular reworkings and re-imaginings of Shakespeare’s texts in modern film adaptations. Topics to be discussed include: poetic and cinematic language; the politics of gender and race – then and now; Bardolatry, or, Shakespeare as a cultural myth; the history and theory of adaptation. – It is essential that all participants read and reflect upon the texts before each class. You should enrol for a short oral presentation before the beginning of term (see the list in our library, C 603); B.A. and M.A. students are expected to participate in the Independent Study Group. A class schedule and a bibliography will be made available online.
- Recommended literature
