Expanded Course Description
Students in ENG 208 read, discuss, and critique Shakespeare's major comedies and tragedies, Twelfth Night through the end of Shakespeare's career. Plays may include, but are not limited to, Twelfth Night, Measure for Measure, King Lear, Macbeth, Anthony and Cleopatra, The Tempest, and Othello. Weekly readings and occasional screenings of plays demand a considerable investment of time and effort, in addition to which students will be asked to compose critical essays of varying length, totaling at least 8-10 pages. Both Shakespeare courses, ENG 207 and 208, introduce students to central questions in the study of dramatic art, as well as to issues pertaining more broadly to the study of literature in English. Students will leave these courses having read extensively from the works of one of the major writers of the western tradition, and they will have acquired interpretive, analytical, and communication skills that will aid them in their future coursework in English and other disciplines. ENG 208 satisfies the university's Group Requirement in the Arts and Letters category. ENG 207 and 208 may be taken as a chronological sequence or individually. |
