Why and how teachers should teach The Globe Theatre and Shakespeares Globe in the English classroom

Zusatztext

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich Didaktik für das Fach Englisch - Pädagogik, Sprachwissenschaft, Note: 1,7, Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Universität Greifswald (Institut für Anglistik / Amerikanistik), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In this seminar paper I want to discuss why and how The Globe as the best example for an Elizabethan theatre or playhouse, as it would have been called in Shakespeares days and Shakespeares Globe as a modern copy of The Globe should be included in a Shakespeare course aimed at German Sekundarstufe II students of English at a Gymnasium or at an Integrierte Gesamtschule. I will also attach some material that can be used for the purpose of teaching students about The Globe to the seminar paper. I designed some of it myself, but also found some useful material on the internet. Since a seminar paper only offers limited space to discuss ideas in an exemplary manner I can not comment on all attached material, although every attached material offers different ways to use it for the topic.Before I start discussing why the theatre topic should be an essential part of any Shakespeare course and how it could be done, I have to mention that despite a seemingly endless number of books on Shakespeare, his times and literature focussing on teaching Shakespeare, there are only a very small number of publications featuring suggestions and ideas on teaching students about The Globe and Shakespeares Globe.
