Abstracts: Shakespeare is the most canonical of all writers. But (you may have wondered) why? And is Shakespeare’s status just a bothersome relic of high culture or does his work really matter? The lecture course will have two aims: (a) offer an introduction to Shakespeare’s plays and poems, and (b) offer reasons for considering them relevant in all sorts of ways. A range of reasons will be addressed: he created characters that have been considered prototypical, he influenced the way in which the English language is spoken, he created (or at least transformed) plots and stories that are still imitated by writers today, he shaped versions of kings and queens and other historical figures that determined the way we think about them, he presented emotions, relations and conflicts that we recognize as our own. Last but not least, there is a paradoxical reason why Shakespeare became such an important writer: because he was not a solitary genius but worked in various forms of collaboration.
