I'm a little confused about the whole "readings: bizzo.
See I have a list of possible reading perspectives including...

-post colonial
-feminist
-marxist
-psychoanalytic
-new historicism and cultural materialism
-deconstruction
- queer theory

and i understand i have to make a decision from what perspective do i interpret the play (or a combination of 2 or so..)...so where do themes come in?

Do i work out what themes i find most important and then what criticisms have best influencd these themes?

can someone summarise this plz

For this module u basically need to understand how different composers, directors etc have adapted the original text to suit different contexts etc. eg/ the feminist reading provides motivation for the girls harted towards lear (its called a thousand acres) uum not really sure what else to put atm
