Principal topics include the relation of play-script to performance, the implications of recent changes in textual study, the relevance of texts to the social and political world in which they were produced, and the impact of contemporary theory on Shakespeare criticism. A Bernard and Gloria Beckerman Lecture is presented annually in honor of the seminar’s founders.
