    Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage

    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

You will receive many handouts throughout the year, so the ability to organize them is important. • Purchase a spiral notebook (or 2) to use for taking notes from the textbook. This should be used exclusively for this purpose, not shared with any other subject. Maps: There will be a map test the first day of class. You should be able to identify the countries, major rivers and waterways, mountain ranges, and other significant features of European geography. You will be able to retake the test as often as you need to achieve the optimum grade. The following websites provide online quizzes to practice. https://online.seterra.com/en/vgp/3007 https://lizardpoint.com/geography/europe-quiz.php Videos and Documentaries: The majority of this course begins in 1600, well past the Renaissance. However, it is essential that you have a good foundation of the Renaissance in order to understand the progression of modern European history.

    FALOCCO, JOE, Ph.D. Elizabethan Staging in the Twentieth Century: Theatrical Practice and Cultural Context. (2006) Directed by Russ McDonald. 433 pp. This study examines some of the major figures involved in the rediscovery of early modern staging conventions. Despite the wide variety of approaches employed by William Poel, Nugent Monck, Tyrone Guthrie, and the founders of the new Globe, I perceive a common philosophical underpinning to their endeavors. Rather than indulging in archaism for its own sake, they looked backward in a progressive attempt to address the challenges of the twentieth century. My history begins with an introduction in which I establish the ideological position of the Elizabethan revival as the twentieth-century heir to Pre-Raphaelitism. The first chapter is on William Poel and urges a reexamination of the conventional view of Poel as an antiquarian crank. I then devote chapters to Harley Granville Barker and Nugent Monck, both of whom began their careers with Poel. Barker’s critical writing, I argue, has been largely responsible for the Elizabethan revival’s reputation as an academic and literary phenomenon. Monck, on the other hand, took the first tentative steps toward an architectural reimagining of twentieth-century performance spaces, an advance which led to Tyrone Guthrie’s triumphs in Elizabethan staging. Guthrie learned from Monck and Barker as these men had learned from Poel. This lineage of influence, however, did not directly extend to the new Globe. The Globe also differs from the subjects of my other chapters because it doesn’t represent the effort of a single practitioner but instead incorporates the contributions of a group of scholars and architects.
