Evans, G.B., ed.: The Riverside Shakespeare
Description
This course will explore Shakespeare's artistic use of the formal resources of verse, especially meter, rhyme, alliteration and syntactic parallelism. We will consider what defines these forms; how they vary across lyric, narrative and dramatic genres; where they come from and how they develop; how they shape performance; and most of all, what they contribute to the emotional power and beauty of his works. The course is a research seminar, so various short papers and oral presentations leading to one long paper will be required.
English 190 replaces English 100 and 150 as of Fall ’09. English majors may fulfill the seminar requirement for the major by taking one section of English 190 (or by having taken either English 100 or 150 before Fall ’09). Please read the paragraph on page 1 of this Announcement of Classes for more details about enrolling in or wait-listing for this course!
