Description

ENGL 351. SHAKESPEARE I. One of two courses which together examine 20 of the 37 plays of William Shakespeare. Each semester begins with a study of the sonnets and then focuses on ten of the major plays, selected from the comedies, histories, tragedies and romances. Class discussion is supplemented with a required lab session for the viewing and discussion of performances of the plays under study. Either Shakespeare course will satisfy the Speaking Intensive (SI) requirements for the English major. Plays for the fall semester usually include Richard III, Taming of the Shrew, Merchant of Venice, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Romeo and Juliet, Much Ado About Nothing, Henry V, Julius Caesar, Othello, and The Winter's Tale. Students may take either or both courses, in either sequence. Prerequisite: English 202 or by permission. Fall semester only, three hours.
