Mondays February 26, 7:00 - 9:00 pm Missing Game of Thrones? Some would argue that Richard III is a story with equal cult following potential. Join Steven Barkhimer in an exploratory class series (think book club meets salon!) and take a deep dive into the history and controversy surrounding the enigmatic Richard III. Why has he inspired such interest as an historical figure and the title character in Shakespeare’s play? How was his cultural myth created and perpetuated, and what social and dramatic purpose does it serve?
