If the greatest minds of Western Civilization have wrestled with Shakespeare for 400 years, how can a modern student join the conversation with confidence? Beholding the Bard leads students to seek Truth, Virtue, and Beauty in five of Shakespeare’s most beloved plays: Much Ado About Nothing, Julius Caesar, Macbeth, Henry V, and Hamlet. Each play is explored through the arts of the Grammar, Dialectic, and Rhetoric over the course of five weeks through deep reading and contemplation, asking good questions, and expressing discoveries in oral and written form. Beholding the Bard offers helpful guidance for every step of their Shakespeare journey.
