- Oktatás célja
- This course will provide a closer reading and interpretation of Shakespeare’s plays from the point of view of race, gender, nationality and religion – and otherness in general. The course also aims to provide a cultural/historical background for the delicate issue of being other than the norm(al).
- Tantárgy tartalma
- The course will provide an opportunity for students not only to practise their drama-close-reading skills, but also to look for possible explanations and solutions to currently relevant and controversial topics (such as race, gender, religion and nationality) through Shakespeare’s plays. The chosen plays are Othello, The Merchant of Venice, Titus Andronicus, Macbeth, King Lear, Richard III, As You Like It, The Tempest (tentative list; can be changed according to students’ needs and interests).
