- Inhalt
- The seminar aims to explore Shakespeare and early modern theatre as cultural phenomena that have been variously appropriated by writers, directors and critics. The seminar will offer both, an introduction to early modern contexts of Shakespeare, and discussions of later adaptations in literature and film. We will consider three plays and their afterlives in more detail: Hamlet, The Merchant of Venice, and The Tempest. This will be complemented by a discussion of Roland Emmerich’s 2011 film Anonymous about the life and work of ‘the real’ Shakespeare. In the course of the seminar, we will thus encounter multiple Shakespeares, among them a ‘postcolonial Shakespeare’, a ‘popular Shakespeare’, and a ‘political Shakespeare’.
