Brunel University London, MA, Shakespeare Authorship Studies

 United Kingdom

 

Study mode Start date Duration
Full-time n/a years: 1
Part-time n/a years: 2
The programme tackles the subject of Shakespeare and authorship in all its diversity; students interrogate the mythologisation of Shakespeare, and examine the effects of collaboration on notions of authorship, value, genius, and authority; the programme also considers the enormously controversial phenomenon of the Shakespeare authorship question; the Master's considers how the desire for a national and global icon produced the Shakespeare industry; through close textual analysis of Shakespeare’s writings, it reveals the impact on the ‘Shakespeare’ corpus of collaboration with other writers; it also raises the spectre of the Shakespeare authorship question; rather than promoting an alternative to the ‘man from Stratford’, the course analyses the actual social and cultural phenomenon that is the authorship question itself.

Location

The University is just a 20-minute walk – or a short bus ride – from Uxbridge underground station, so it is a straightforward journey into central London. There is also a night bus that can bring you from central London to the edge of the campus. The town of Uxbridge itself, which still has buildings dating back to its time as a Georgian market town, is a thriving commercial and business centre. Its major shopping complexes, The Pavilions and the Chimes Centre, boast a wide range of shops, cafes and a nine-screen multiplex cinema.
