Prof William Kolbrener, is an English professor at Bar Ilan University, who’s published books on Milton and Soloveitchik among others. We recently worked on his Alpe course - Shakespeare and the modern individual which opened my eyes to the world of teaching literature.
I wanted to talk to Bill about what it’s like teaching Shakespeare and that led us down a fascinating conversation on the divine, what makes great works of art and his framework for teaching which I loved. as well as the importance of teaching the humanities.
