[edit] Description from course catalog

Shakespeare’s works profoundly and poetically, seriously and comically, materially and symbolically critique and celebrate multiple types of sexuality, eroticism, and sexual experience. We will employ varied theories and methods for studying these sexualities, including ways for queering the early modern period. We’ll also consider how performance choices inflect intepretations of sexual expression. Works include "Rape of Lucrece," selected sonnets, Merchant of Venice, Romeo and Juliet, Twelfth Night, Troilus and Cressida, and either Titus Andronicus, or Coriolanus. British, Diversity, Pre-1700.
