ShakesFear and How to Cure It - The Complete Handbook for Teaching Shakespeare

For teachers and lovers of Shakespeare, ShakesFear and How to Cure It provides a comprehensive approach to the challenge and rewards of teaching Shakespeare and gives teachers both an overview of each of Shakespeare''s 38 plays and specific classroom tools for teaching it. Written by a celebrated teacher, scholar and director of Shakespeare, it shows teachers how to use the text to make the words and the moments come alive for their students. It refutes the idea that Shakespeare''s language is difficult and provides a survey of the plays by someone who has lived intimately with them on the page and on the stage.>
