Welcome to the Arcadia blog

Welcome, Arcadians!

Blogging is increasingly becoming used in academic circles as a way to share learning beyond the classroom walls. In fact, some univrsity courses now require you to blog as a mandatory element of course structure, often using blog comments as a form of assessment. Hopefully you will all have many insightful comments to make over the next few months that will be shared with the year group in their learning.

Arcadia is a complex play that requires careful consideration. The amount of time that we spend together in class seems as though it may prove insufficient for a full appreciation of all of the elements that will lead to your decision of coursework topic.

This blog intends to ask questions that may either not surface in class or that may require development beyond the classroom walls and should thus lead you to think more creatively about some of the more intricate aspects of the play.

Please take time to read posts, contribute thoughts and add posts of your own so that we can extend our understanding of the play and share insights that will inevitably improve your analysis.
