Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Didactics - English - Genres, grade: 1,3, University of Duisburg-Essen, language: English, abstract: In North Rhine-Westphalia teaching Shakespeare is, as in other federal states, an integral part in the curriculum for the Sekundarstufe II in English and has equal to the prior years, in the upcoming Abitur 2021 Shakespeare in its standards. However, in recent years the acceptance of Shakespeare in the classroom was highly discussed.

The paper is divided into two parts. The first part deals with the theoretical background on teaching sonnets. Since sonnets belong to the genre of poetry, I will first outline the role and benefits of teaching poetry. Afterwards, I will address the potential and challenges of teaching Shakespeare. [...]
