- Course Description:
The course will focus on language, literature and its corresponding discoursesas historically evolved phenomena. The linguistic part of the course will be an exploration of the English language at the time when Shakespeare wrote his plays: Early Modern English. What was English like during this time structurally as well as socially? How was it pronounced and how did grammatical structures differ from those of present day English? And what is the evidence on which we can base our analysis?
The literary and cultural part will mainly investigate early modern plays and poems, but also texts in the context of the battle of the sexes with its dashing wit combats.Historicity will be explored by first of all establishing some of the central concerns of the period, and by reflecting on the historical differences between the 16th and the 21st centuries. We will start out by tracing the history of the sonnet from Chaucer to Shakespeare and the effects of linguistic change on literary production. Besides, we will explore drama as well as the precursors of the novel with regard to literary form and gender issues.
