ENG 168: Shakespeare and Ecology
Units: 4
Reads several Shakespearean plays and poems that engages directly with the natural world, and learns about the ecological contexts—including deforestation and the climate change of the “Little Ice Age”—that affected the writer and his audiences in early modern England. Explores the many ecological uses to which these plays are being put in the present day, and studies nearby projects, like Shakespeare in Yosemite, as well as various eco-minded adaptations across the continents that leverage the popularity and natural imagery of these plays to urge collaborative action on pressing environmental issues.
