Institution:

CUNY Bernard M Baruch College

Subject:

English

Description:

3 hours; 3 credits This course surveys the extraordinary development of English drama from 1540 to 1640, from the initial enthusiasm that encouraged the building of the first theatres in London to the harsh repression that culminated in the closing of all theatres by the Puritans. Readings demonstrate the stylistic diversity of popular plays by major playwrights, such as Kyd, Marlowe, Jonson, and continental authors. Prerequisite: ENG 2150 or equivalent, ENG/LTT 2800 or 2850, or departmental permission. For students with two other upper-level (3000-level or above) English courses, this course may serve as the capstone for the Tier III requirement.
