Halio (Professor Emeritus of English, University of Delaware) Bio: Educated at Syracuse University (B.A., summa cum laude, with Honors in English, 1950) and Yale (M.A. 1951, Ph.D. 1956), Jay L. Halio began teaching English at The University of California, Davis in 1955. He moved to the University of Delaware in 1968 as Professor of English and later served six years as Associate Provost for Instruction (1975-81). During this time he has also served on the editorial board of the University of Delaware Press, which he chaired from 1985 to 1997. He has received many grants for instructional purposes, such as a Development Grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities for the Humanities Semester at the University of Delaware, where he served as its director (1978-81), and research grants from the Folger Shakespeare Library and NEH for his work on the New Variorum edition of Shakespeare’s All’s Well That Ends Well. At Delaware he also helped found the Center for Teaching Effectiveness and was its director, 1986-87. Professor Halio has taught a wide variety of both graduate and undergraduate courses, specializing in Shakespeare and his contemporaries, but also teaching courses in modern British and American literature, modern drama, moral issues in modern literature, and Jewish American literature. He has directed several Ph.D. dissertations and is active in various professional organizations, such as the Shakespeare Association of America, the International Shakespeare Association, the Association of Literary Scholars and Critics, and the American Literature Association. The author or editor of more than thirty books, Professor Halio has also published a large number of essays and chapters in books. His essays have appeared in Shakespeare Quarterly, Shakespeare Studies, Studies in English Literature, Neophilologus, College Literature, Text, and other leading journals. He has also published books and articles on contemporary literature and essays on higher education. He has twice been a Fulbright-Hays Senior Lecturer and has lectured at many universities at home and abroad. Under the Visiting Scholar Program of the Delaware Humanities Forum, Professor Halio visits a number of schools in the State of Delaware every year to discuss Shakespeare with students and teachers. At present, though technically retired, he continues to teach occasionally at both the graduate and undergraduate level at the University of Delaware and abroad. In 2000 and again in 2005, he was visiting professor at the University of Cyprus, and in 2006 at the University of Sofia, Bulgaria. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lecture 1 Shakespeare’s Concept of Tragedy Moderator: Professor Ching-Hsi Perng (Professor, DFLL & Department of Drama, NTU) 主持人：彭鏡禧教授（臺大外文系與戲劇系合聘教授） Time: 10:20 am ~ 12:00 pm, Tuesday, March 31, 2009 時間：2009年3月31日（週二）上午10:20-12:00 Venue: College Conference Room, 2F College of Liberal Arts, NTU 地點：臺大文學院二樓院會議室 Abstract: The talk will focus mainly on Shakespeare’s middle tragedies—JULIUS CAESAR, HAMLET, OTHELLO—but I will also discuss some of the later tragedies. I believe Shakespeare implied in the middle tragedies alternatives to catastrophe that the protagonists fail to see until too late. The implication may be summed up in the phrase “What if...?” ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lecture 2 The Tragic Obverse of Shakespearean Comedy Moderator: Professor Yanwing Leung (Associate Professor and Chair, DFLL, NTU) 主持人：梁欣榮教授（臺大外文系副教授兼系主任） Time: 3:30 ~ 5:00 pm, Wednesday, April 1, 2009 時間：2009年4月1日（週三）下午3:30-5:00 Venue: DFLL New Conference Room, Gallery of NTU History (Old Main Library) 地點：臺大校史館（舊總圖）一樓外文系新會議室 Abstract: In this talk which complements the previous one on Shakespeare’s concept of tragedy, I will discuss the ways Shakespeare introduces tragic aspects in his major comedies before entering upon his tragic period and the tragicomedies. For example, I will discuss Shakespeare’s introduction of a potentially tragic frame in one of his earliest comedies, “The Comedy of Errors,” and the tragic potentials in plays like “Much Ado about Nothing” and “As You Like It.” --
