Course title<\/strong>: Shakespeare
<\/em>Instructor<\/strong>: Prof. Janja Ciglar-\u017dani\u0107.<\/span>
ECTS credits<\/strong>: 6.<\/span>
Status<\/strong>: elective.<\/span>
Semester<\/strong>: 3rd<\/sup> or 5th<\/sup>.<\/span>
Enrollment requirements<\/strong>: completed 2nd<\/sup> or 4th<\/sup> semester.<\/span>
Course description<\/strong>: The course will be concerned with a selected number of Shakespeare\u2019s plays viewed in the light of new theories of literature and culture. A study of the new strategies of reading, developed in the last few decades (new historicism, cultural materialism, feminism, postcolonialism), will introduce the course. Each of the selected plays will be accompanied by different film productions of the corresponding play and the discussions will centre on the relationship between text and its visual presentations. Special attention will be paid to the reinscriptive practices in both textual criticism and film productions.<\/span>
Objectives<\/strong>: The main objective of the course is to shed a new light on the traditional understanding and reading of the plays as well as on the plays themselves. An additional objective is to examine how Shakespeare\u2019s texts function in a medium non-existent in Shakespeare\u2019s time and how in both their textual and visual medium they are related to our present concerns.<\/span>
Course requirements<\/strong>: Continuous evaluation: Class work (regular attendance at lectures and active class participation), a seminar paper (with an oral presentation), and two quiz– and essay\u2014style exams on issues raised by plays covered in class and social and cultural issues as they relate to Shakespeare’s plays.<\/span><\/p>\n
