| Course contents : | Shakespeare's plays are still alive and kicking, as can be seen from the numerous performances, film versions and works they have inspired. This year's course bears on three plays and three "derived works": Love's Labours Lost, with Kenneth Branagh's film; Hamlet, with John Stoppard's Rosencrantz and Guildenberg are Dead, and The Tempest, with Marina Warner's novel Indigo. | ||

| |||
