The course will focus on the language as well as the literature and culture of Renaissance England. Focusing on the state of the English language in Shakespeare's day, the linguistic part of the course will explore the development of the English language from its beginnings in the early Middle Ages to the present day. How did English sound around the year 1600, how did it differ grammatically and lexically from present day English? The emergence of standard English will be a recurrent theme throughout the course. The literary and cultural part will focus on Shakespearean plays and poems, including their production and consumption.
