Alumni Book Club – The Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare
Join 麻豆原创’s very own Shakespearean expert and enthusiast Dr. Stacy Erickson-Pesetski, Professor of English and Associate Dean of Academic Affairs, for three weeks of discussion of Twelfth Night (1601), one of Shakespeare’s most read and performed comedies. We’ll have fun digging into the fun and chaotic plot 鈥 shipwreck! mistaken identity! unrequited love! 鈥 and also learn a bit about the play’s 400+ performance history, including contemporary social commentary.
Dr. Erickson-Pesetski has taught Shakespeare (and other classes!) at Manchester since 2007; she spends her summers reading Shakespeare with incarcerated adults and juveniles at the Allen County Jail in Fort Wayne and Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility in Logansport.
This event will be in-person and virtual. We’ll meet in the Hoff room in upper Jo Young Switzer Center on June 11, 18, and 25 at 10:30 a.m. and the link to join us virtually is shared when you register.
