Taught by Dr. Sara Morrison, Professor of English; Culture, Society, and Justice Division Head; Dean for the Core Curriculum; William Jewell College

This course explores Shakespeare’s late romance through the theological and cultural imagination of redemption, asking how art dramatizes the possibility of renewal in a world marked by loss and fracture. Situating The Winter’s Tale within conversations about grace, forgiveness, justice, and the mystery of restoration, we will draw from Christian thought as well as early modern and contemporary interpretive lenses. Students will engage the play through close reading, performance analysis, and theological reflection, considering how Shakespeare invites audiences to reckon with the cost—and gift—of transformation.
