English Renaissance Drama
ENGL 111 FA

Largely because of the institutionalization of what Shaw mockingly dubbed "Bardolotry," most modern readers' encounter with English Renaissance drama starts and ends with the plays of Shakespeare. As a consequence, very few students become acquainted with other works from the Tudor and Stuart stage. This course attempts to remedy this deficiency by reading Shakespeare alongside a representative sample of some of the funniest, weirdest and most provocative plays of his contemporaries and rivals.
