ENGL 410AE - Shakespeare as Cultural Icon
This course examines the ways in which Shakespeare has been used as a national and international icon, both to maintain institutionalized power and to serve as a resistance point for underprivileged groups. We trace this fundamental paradox through the cultural reception of four popular, contested plays in the Shakespeare canon. *Note: This course is intended for ENGL Honours students. Students who are not ENGL Honours students require permission of the Department Head to register.* *Note: Students may receive credit for one of ENGL 410AE or ENGL 802AE.*
