KJ is a professor of English and Literature at a small Christian liberal arts college. In addition to courses entitled “Shakespeare” and “Introduction to Shakespeare,” he teaches a course called “Shakespeare and Film.”

Recently, he developed a course titled “Modern Shakespearean Fiction.” Shakespeare is also integrated into nearly all his other courses, including courses on the Literature of Food and the Literature of Humor.

He is also the author of Bardfilm: The Shakespeare and Film Blog. But you may have known that already.

Note: I'm required by Amazon to say the following: "As an Amazon Associate[,] I earn from qualifying purchases." But you knew that already, too.
