    Description
    This course surveys a representative selection of Shakespeare’s plays and poetry to analyze his language, ideas, craft, and worldview in light of the historical and cultural forces of the early modern world, while evaluating their continued relevance to our own time. Students will practice the skills needed for analyzing and writing critically about literature, but also study Shakespeare’s works as dramatic art, and explore the ways they have been adapted and reimagined into various media
