Shakespeare International Summer School
The English Department at the Hebrew University offers its students an opportunity to participate in a new summer course on Shakespeare in Verona, Italy. Hosted by the Skenè Research Centre, Verona, this exciting initiative will approach Shakespeare from a double perspective that integrates source studies and performance studies. This year, the course will be devoted to The Comedy of Errors and Twelfth Night.
