We will read and discuss examples from popular contemporary poetic genres such as the sonnet sequence, the epyllion, and the pastoral. We will also keep an eye on the theatrical context, studying works by popular playwrights such as Christopher Marlowe, Thomas Kyd, William Shakespeare and Thomas Dekker. We will follow the decade’s prose as it ranges broadly from proto-novelistic romances to satirical pamphleteering, from underworld documentary to exotic travel narratives. Our literary study of the decade will also regularly cast an eye to other examples of popular print culture, including contemporary news from home and abroad, tales of piracy on lawless seas, and accounts of witchcraft and other strange crimes.

Waltz is likewise terrific, manic and monstrous, the opposite of one of Burton's usual creative characters. Burton's other signature touches are here, including Adams as one of his usual willowy blondes, but her great performance gets to the root of the character's deep, crippling emotional insecurity. While Burton uses quirky visuals to twist and dismantle the traditional domestic standard, he also focuses on an honest-to-goodness grown-up relationship and its interactions and confrontations. ![]() BIG EYES avoids the seriousness of too many other biopics and stays true not only to the Keanes' story and situation, but also to Burton's singular filmmaking vision. ![]() Tim Burton teams with screenwriters Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski for the first time since Ed Wood the result is another amazing-but-true story that's delightful, prickly, and bizarre.
