Description:

A selection of the greatest plays from the first half of Shakespeare's career, including the romantic comedies, history plays, early tragedies, with some attention to the sonnets.

Emphasis on erotic desire and communal restraint; dramatic structure and theatrical genre; above all on learning how to read Shakespeare with pleasure, paying attention to both the plays' verbal and theatrical values.
