ENGL 051 PZ -Shakespeare:Performce & Diffrnce

Institution: Pitzer

Description: Shakespeare: Performance & Difference Throughout the world, Shakespeare has been used as both a tool of cultural colonialism and radical empowerment. How can we engage with Shakespeare in meaningful and inclusive ways? Why is Shakespeare still relevant? Learn how to read, speak, and analyze as an actor does by paying attention to rhythm, imagery, antitheses, repetition, and sound. Explore how the text on the page becomes the play on the stage and examine how plays are interpreted and performed. The course places special emphasis on characters of difference, or characters that are othered, and how difference has been portrayed in contemporary interpretations.
