Cíle předmětu
As early as 1585, professional English travelling players started performing in Europe, an activity lasting well over a century and one that turned out to be crucial for European drama. Shakespeare's plays occupied an important position in the itinerant repertory, complementing the collateral literary influences that Shakespeare's works had on early modern Europe. This crucial moment in cultural, literary and theatre history has been studied by a number of influential scholars since the middle of the 19th century, most importantly by Albert Cohn, Anna Baesecke, Ernest Brennecke, Otto G. Schindler, Adolf Scherl, Bärbel Rudin, Jerzy Limon, and M. A. Katritzky. The seminar, consisting of invited lectures as well as incoming papers, is aimed at presenting new findings as well as the current state of knowledge of the early modern continental influence of Shakespeare, the context in which these processes take place, and offering possible approaches and research opportunities in further investigation of the field. Relating to the current research in transnational theatrical exchange (the Theater Without Borders research group, the EuroDrama research team) and early modern theatre history of Central Europe (Theatre Institute, Prague), the seminar is envisioned to stimulate further academic interest, especially in the Czech lands where the topic has not yet been sufficiently addressed. Invited lecturers (confirmed to date): M.A. Katritzky, Richard Andrews, Christian Billing. This course is optimal for graduate and international students.
Osnova
  • The papers will address a variety of topics that corroborate a contextual perspective of the early modern European theatre, performance, literature and culture that are relevant to the reception of Shakespeare's (and other English) dramatic works. Of interest are also dramatic and literary works that were not influenced by Shakespeare but deal with the same material (story, plot elements), thus preparing a way for the reception.
