C. Shakespeare Today! Richard Finkelstein, Ph.D., Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. Shakespeare is neither the man nor the set of
works that we knew as recently as 25 years ago.
Once seen as a visionary genius whose plays give
us deep insights into human nature, today he is
seen as an enterprising craftsman who attracted
audiences by engaging them in contemporary
debates about power, politics, religion,
sexuality, and identity. What does this changed
understanding of Shakespeare tell us about
ourselves and creativity? Class in Monroe Hall 115.
