Eric Rasmussen

Eric Rasmussen has been teaching CH 201 since he joined the faculty of the English department in 1994. Since earning his Ph.D. degree from the University of Chicago in 1990, he has developed an international reputation as a Shakespeare scholar and editor. His technological proficiency in the classroom is paralleled by the pioneering work he is engaged in--bringing Shakespeare editions and scholarship to the internet. He has published editions of Marlowe's Doctor Faustus (1993) and all of Marlowe's works (1995), as well as a textual companion to Doctor Faustus (1994). Training students with the help of a large grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, he has been working on the New Variorum edition of Hamlet for the Modern Language Association. He is co-editing the forthcoming Norton Anthology of English Renaissance Drama and, in the Arden Shakespeare series, has published King Henry VI Part 3. He annually reviews "The Year's Contributions to Shakespeare Studies" for Shakespeare Survey. For the past two years he has been editing the complete works of Shakespeare to serve as the official texts of the massive Royal Shakespeare Company endeavor, performing on its stages in Stratford over a bit more than a year all the plays written by Shakespeare. In 1999 he was awarded the Mosel-Feltner Award for Excellence in Research by the College of Arts and Science. His lecture, "When Myth Became Fact: The Discovery of the World of the Odyssey," was part of the broadcast series, The Western Traditions Lectures.
