Join us for an engaging class on March 12, 2012, where we explore five distinct interpretations of Batman as a recognized character across various media. From the 1939 comic to the iconic television series, Tim Burton's films, Christopher Nolan's "Batman Begins," and the "Arkham Asylum" video game, each presentation offers a unique take on Batman's persona. After reviewing the interpretations, students will express personal preferences and justify their choices. Additionally, we will cover sonnet structure and analyze John Keats’ poem, concluding with a homework assignment on poetic meter.
