The Rhodes College English Department invites you to attend the symposium “Green Shakespeare” on March 26, 2010.
For this symposium on eco-critical approaches to interpreting Shakespeare, Robert Watson (UCLA) will give a keynote lecture, exploring what he calls “the ecology of self” in “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.”
Watson is the author of the recent book “Back to Nature: The Green and the Real in the Late Renaissance” (http://www.upenn.edu/pennpress/book/14213.html).
The lecture will begin at 2:00pm, with a roundtable discussion with international Shakespeare scholars to follow immediately after at 3:00pm.
