| Summary |
This book proposes and explores a historical and cultural approach to teaching Shakespeare, situating the plays and sonnets in a tumultuous early modern world. The narrative invites teachers to imagine how middle and high school students connect with rigorous and older texts. The approach helps students in secondary grades connect to the work and raises academic and intellectual expectations. |
