ENGL 54300: Shakespeare in Critical Context

“Shakespeare’s Woman Project” combines an introduction to Shakespeare, feminism, and queer theory with a more general introduction to the context of Elizabethan and Jacobean theatre and literary culture, and a hypothesis that, taken together, Shakespeare’s female characters chart a specific path of thought and development that is not limited to development of thought about women.

This eight-week course focuses on one play each week.

Please review the syllabus for full course information.

This is a Full Semester course. Participants may register for one Full Semester course for the Summer 2021 semester.
