Approaches to Teaching Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew
A work of Non-fiction by Grace Tiffany
Subgenres:
- Shakespeare Studies,
- Teaching Resources
This book is for you if you're into...
- Teaching strategies for Shakespeare's most debated marriage play
- Classroom discussions on gender, rhetoric, and early modern education
- Exploring student performances and adaptations of The Taming of the Shrew
The impetus for this Approaches to Teaching volume on The Taming of the Shrew grew from the editors' desire to discover why a play notorious for its controversial exploration of conflicts between men and women and the challenges of marriage is enduringly popular in the classroom, in the performing arts, and in scholarship.
The result is a volume that offers practical advice to teachers on editions and teaching resources in part 1, "Materials," while illuminating how the play's subtle and complex arguments regarding not just marriage but a host of other subjects--modes of early modern education, the uses of clever rhetoric, intergenerational and class politics, the power of theater--are being brought to life in college classrooms.
The essays in part 2, "Approaches," are written by English and theater instructors who have taught in a variety of academic settings and cover topics including early modern homilies and music, Hollywood versions of The Taming of the Shrew, and student performances.
with Grace Tiffany “ We have too many screens in our life. There's something great about a paper book. ”
