Renaissance Theater: Shakespeare's Plays



In class students read, analysed and discussed the main aspects of these plays. The plays highlighted in red, were the plays we discussed in class. They shared with the group the plots and also interesting points addressed in the introductions of the Signet Classical Shakespeare Series edition.
