Johnson, Laurie (2013) Unthinking Hamlet: stage, page, and critical thought. In: Teaching Shakespeare beyond the centre: Australasian perspectives. Palgrave Shakespeare Studies. Palgrave Macmillan Ltd., Basingstoke, Hants. United Kingdom, pp. 63-74. ISBN 978-1-137-27506-6
Abstract
In teaching Shakespeare, scholars can use the students' prior knowledge to aid in 'unthinking' a Shakespeare play as a single or fixed unit of meaning, which enables the students to learn 'on the fly' with greater critical freedom. To do this, the scholar must draw on the latest research in the field but must also differentiate roles, allowing students to occupy the position of the 'subject supposed to know' traditionally assumed by the teacher-researcher.
