English Renaissance Drama
ENGL 111
Fall 2007 not offered
|
Largely because of the institutionalization of what Shaw mockingly dubbed "Bardolatry," most modern readers' encounter with English Renaissance drama starts and ends with the plays of Shakespeare. As a consequence, very few students become acquainted with other works from the Tudor and Stuart stage. This course attempts to remedy this deficiency by reading Shakespeare alongside a representative sample of some of the most compelling plays of his contemporaries and rivals. |
