Subject:    On-Line -- Shakespeare Visions: Film & Text

I teach Shakespeare at Monterey Peninsula College (CALIF) and have 
launched a new course this fall, SHAKESPEARE VISIONS (ENGL 16), an 
on-line film and text class where students compare various film versions 
of the plays with the text.

Shakespeare Visions: Film & Text . . .
ENGL 16 - 3 units - Transfer: CSU

Shakespeare's plays were written to be heard and seen. English 16 
Shakespeare Visions offers an entirely new way to enjoy the works of 
William Shakespeare. In addition to reading selected plays, students 
will compare film versions of the works and participate in an on-line 
discussion forum. Students access various films through Netflix and 
other commercial sources and view them at their leisure over the course 
of a 16-week semester.

English 16 offers 3-units of academic credit, transferable to 4-year 
institutions.

For further information on this exciting new course, contact Allston

Instructor Allston James' plays have been performed locally as well as 
in New York and San Francisco. His new drama, The Lated Traveler, was 
semi-finalist in the 2008 Hyperion Project California Playwriting 
Competition and received an Off-Broadway reading in April 2009.
