Scheduling Note: This class can be requested as a once OR twice a week class--twice a week cuts the number of weeks in half. In addition to Shakespeare's comedies, tragedies, and history plays, many scholars include a fourth category, the problem plays. The Merchant of Venice, while usually labeled a comedy because it ends with several marriages, has tragic consequences for at least one of the characters. Often cited as a response to Christopher Marlowe's brutal play The Jew of Malta,...
Students will grow their knowledge and understanding of Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice, gaining skills that will carry over to all of Shakespeare's plays. Students will be able to explain the difference between a soliloquy and a monologue. Students will be comfortable discussing and/or debating the classification of this play as a comedy. Students will gain confidence in reading aloud. While this is not an acting class, students will be encouraged to convey character as they become more comfortable with the language. Students will demonstrate learning through classroom participation (reading and discussion) and in the completion of a final project.
提供的家庭作業
The entire play will be read aloud in class. I never require students to read alone, unguided and in silence, but they are encouraged to read ahead if they wish to be better prepared for the live reading. A final project will be chosen by each student (in consultation with the teacher) and might include writing, performance, artwork, parody, music, etc.0 - 1 每週課外時間
提供的評估
I do not give formal assessments, but let me know if you want me to provide a grade., which will be based on classroom participation and the final project.提供的成績
We will be using the Folger Shakespeare Library text. There are many formats available for free download, but please be sure to select a version, like the PDF, that has line numbers. Free Download here: https://shakespeare.folger.edu/shakespeares-works/the-merchant-of-venice/ If you would like a solid book with great footnotes, you can buy the Folger paperback edition here: https://bookshop.org/books/the-merchant-of-venice-9798694776806/9780743477567 or, if your town still has an independent brick and mortar store, do give them your business. Students should also have a notebook dedicated to this class. Done well, this notebook can be a resource for future Shakespeare courses.
Be forewarned, this play includes depictions of racism and antisemitism and might not be appropriate for less mature students. We do not shy away from discussing difficult topics.
