{"product_id":"teaching-shakespeare-beyond-the-major-9783031242236","title":"Teaching Shakespeare Beyond the Major","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis edited collection considers the task of teaching Shakespeare in general education college courses, a task which is often considered obligatory, perfunctory, and ancillary to a professor's primary goals of research and upper-level teaching. The contributors apply a variety of pedagogical strategies for teaching general education students who are often freshmen or sophomores, non-majors, and\/or non-traditional students. Offering instructors practical classroom approaches to Shakespeare's language, performance, and critical theory, the essays in this collection explicitly address the unique pedagogical situations of today's general education college classroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eM.
