ENG 402 Shakespeare on Film and in Production
In this course students explore how languages and technologies of film
"translate" Shakespeare's plays into contemporary social and cultural
texts. Shakespeare's plays are not viewed as sources or originals but as
inter-texts through which to analyze the modern and post-modern
meanings of Shakespearean films.
