ENGL 184Y - Shakespeare’s ComedySemester Hours: 3
Comedy does not mean “funny”! It’s the structure of drama in which the
reversal of fortune goes from bad to good, and the resolution of social
conflicts through recognition, union and reunion. For Shakespeare, this
means the formation of a new society out of a flawed one, through the
institutions of class and marriage. This class will trace that
idea through several of Shakespeare’s so-called “Comedies” including A
Comedy of Errors, As You Like It, A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Twelfth
Night … Oh, and they’re really funny!
