WiSe 20/21: S-Lit. Stud.: Periods-Genres-Concepts: Shakespeare's Late Plays
Stephan Laqué
Kommentar
Shakespeare’s late plays form a fairly distinct group of texts which has for a long time been something of an embarrassment to Shakespeare scholarship. Artificial and often incoherent plotlines, improbable changes of events and the less-than-subtle spectacle of these plays seem to jar with the seriousness and craftsmanship of his revered comedies and tragedies. We will look at the ‘Romances’ not as a finale to Shakespeare’s work, but as plays which cut across different genres, philosophical concerns and textual strategies. Central issues will be strangeness, magic, suffering and movement. Please purchase print editions of the following texts (preferably Arden or the Norton Shakespeare) which we are going to read in this order: Cymbeline, Pericles, The Winter’s Tale, The Tempest.
