As You Like It, 3 CP<br />
2 st. fr 10-12 GABF 04/413 Süd<br />
The primary aim of this Übung is to engage in a thorough and close reading of As<br />
You Like It, which we will attempt on a scene by scene basis. We will start with the<br />
first scene and work our way through the play. Proceeding in this manner we shall<br />
not only be looking at some of the main themes and issues addressed in the play<br />
(concepts of love, performativity, gender, kingship) but will also discuss aspects such<br />
as genre, staging and language.<br />
We will also attend a performance of Wie Es Euch Gefällt at the Grillo Theater in<br />
Essen.<br />
I strongly suggest that everyone use the latest Arden edition of the play.<br />
Assessment/requirements: active participation; thorough preparation of the individual<br />
scenes and the secondary material; writing a commentary on/analysis of one of the<br />
scenes in As You Like It (to be handed in by 15 September 2013).
