"\;The Magic of Shakespeare"\;
\n taught at SVC by GregRobin Smith - May 20\, 22\, &\; 29. 5-7 PM
\n Managing Director
\n The Washington Shakespearean Festival
\n
\n The works of Shakespeare possess a lasting appeal
\n that seems akin to magic.
\n In fact\, modern literature begins with Shakespeare.
\n
\n How and why do the plays and sonnets have such power?
\n
\n Instead of just studying individual works\, we'\;ll examine the times\,
\n the playwright'\;s life\, and\, most importantly\, the literary tools and techniques
\n this wizard used. This class will consider the how and why
\n of the construction of the plays\, their patterns\, and popularity.
\n
\n We will discuss the rise of England'\;s importance during this
\n Golden Age\, and the increasing power of the English language
\n and culture in world trade\, religion\, and politics.
\n
\n We will try our hand at iambic pentameter
\n (the great building block of Shakespearean language)
\n and do a bit of staging to understand how the physical
\n aspects of Elizabethan theater venues influenced the writing of the plays.
