Unit description:
Provides a study of select Shakespearean histories and tragedies which focus on the personalities and actions of renowned rulers at moments of great political change. The plays will be examined within the context of recent critical debates about the relationship between Shakespeare’s stage and the Elizabethan and Jacobean world. Also considered are questions of genre, Renaissance historiography, performance history, and some of the ways in which Shakespeare’s political dramas have been reworked to reflect new preoccupations and concerns.
