Academic Year 2002/2003
More Plays in Pairs
ENGL 237 FA
Using the same concept as the original Plays in Pairs, but with an entirely different set of readings, this course may be taken for credit either independently or in conjunction with its forerunner (ENGL232). Sometimes
famous, sometimes offbeat examples of drama, opera and film will be grouped in unorthodox sets to bring out surprising connections and relationships.
MAJOR READINGS
PROMETHEUS BOUND (Aeschylus) and HAPPY DAYS (Beckett), THE TEMPEST (Shakespeare) and THE GHOST SONATA (Strindberg), DON GIOVANNI (Mozart) and THE MISANTHROPE (Moliere), LYSISTRATA (Aristophanes) and THE PHYSICISTS
(Duerrenmatt), DEATH OF A SALESMAN
(Miller) and FENCES (Wilson), HAROLD AND MAUDE (Higgins) and MASTER HAROLD AND THE BOYS (Fugard).
EXAMINATIONS AND ASSIGNMENTS
Two written projects, one a traditional paper, the other bizarre.
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS and/or COMMENTS
Unless preregistered students attend the first meeting or communicate directly with the instructor prior to the first class, they will be dropped from the class list. NOTE: Students must still submit a completed DROP/ADD
form to the Registrar's Office.
Thereafter, a student who misses more than three classes will be dropped from the course.
