ENGL-3222-V21- Shakespeare & Popular Culture
Summer Session 2: June 30, 2026 - August 04, 2026
V - Virtual (online courses only): MTWR, 01:00PM - 04:00PM

Shakespeare: the name is now associated with high, even elitist, art, so it's easy to forget that he was mostly writing for a medium of popular entertainment: the public theater. In this course, we'll consider Shakespeare as popular culture in his own day alongside reimaginings of Shakespeare in popular culture today, including films, television series, music, graphic novels, YouTube and TikTok videos, and more. Throughout, we'll consider how and why he came to be a global icon and why many of the myths and cliches surrounding his work fail to do justice to the nuances and complexities of both Shakespeare and popular culture.
