About
Here is a rich variety of approaches to teaching Shakespeare, described by authors who are distinguished teachers and scholars. In setting forth their classroom techniques they otter critical insights as well as stimulating ideas for use by other teachers. Their suggestions range from different pairings of plays, provocative questions for discussion, and ways of reading aloud, to projects for class performances and even possibilities for teaching Shakespeare outside the classroom. The contributors share a concern for developing students' interests and skills beyond strict formal analysis. Contributors: Walter F. Eggers, Jr., Robert B. Heilman, John W. Velz, D. Allen Carroll, Norman Rabkin, Winfried Schleiner, A. C. Hamilton, Albert Wertheim, Paul M. Cubeta, David M. Bergeron, Ray L. Heffner, Jr., Brian Vickers, Jay L. Halio, G. Wilson Knight, Bernard Beckerman. Originally published in 1978. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
