If asked about which writer they associate with Anglophone literature most students might come
up with William Shakespeare who has also become an integral part of British cultural identity.
As a matter of fact his works keep delighting audiences worldwide. However EFL learners might
struggle with the complexity and ambiguity of his plays and poetry. This anthology provides
perspectives of how to read and teach Shakespeare. Thereby it focusses on a variety of texts
worth implementing in teaching units. The articles take the perspective of literary and
cultural studies as base and aim at interconnecting it to major con-cepts and theories of
teaching literature and culture and provides ideas of how to actively teach Shakespeare in
class.With contributions byAlina Dresen Julia Falter Jessie-May Franken Sophie Gnech Svenja
