This dissertation analyzes Shakespeare's role in American education from colonial times through the Progressive Era. The history is divided into four overlapping historical periods, each represented in its own chapter and derived from four different sets of primary sources. The first chapter provides a synopsis of Shakespeare's presence in American education in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and then, through case studies of the records of two nineteenth century university literary societies--the Hasty Pudding Club of Harvard University and the Sherwood Rhetorical Society of Kalamazoo College--examines the role extracurricular activity played in first introducing Shakespeare at the university level and creating a foundation for the formal study of his plays which would come later in the century. The second chapter evaluates the evolution of nineteenth century school readers, the primary texts used in schools for teaching reading, and their incorporation of Shakespeare. Early in the nineteenth century, readers included brief Shakespearean excerpts to be read aloud in class as students studied elocution and learned the skills of proper public speaking. American theater had a dubious and lowbrow reputation in the nineteenth century, and to distance themselves from theatrical association, reader editors only rarely attributed these passages to Shakespeare. As the century progressed, though, and both Shakespeare and theater's reputation increasingly became the property of highbrow culture, reader editors gradually included longer passages and even entire scene sequences. The third chapter compares the school Shakespeare editions edited by Henry Norman Hudson and William James Rolfe in the late nineteenth century, and finds despite superficial differences and editorial conflict, both series demonstrate a focus on literary and textual scholarship absent in the readers that had preceded them. The fourth chapter is an analysis of early contributions from 1912 through 1930 to English Journal, the first professional periodical to record the collective voice of American teachers. These reveal innovative dramatization approaches to teaching Shakespeare that had been shunned in the previous century, as well as the use of new visual and auditory technologies popular in the first decades of the twentieth century.

Historically, Shakespeare's function in the American school curriculum has changed from being a vehicle of moral instruction to being an agent for deepening students' emotional response to life in general. He entered American culture through the familiar stage tradition and fragments of his work were used in the early schoolbooks. Recognizing the educational limitations of brief excerpts from his plays, high schools in the era of Henry Hudson and William Rolfe approached Shakespeare through editions of whole plays, justifying such study within the frameworks of orthodox Christianity and Unitarianism, respectively, and utilizing an aesthetic emphasis made possible by Romantic critical theory. The aesthetic approach to the texts competed for a time with the German-inspired philological approach, but a non-dogmatic aesthetic criticism eventually triumphed, with its appeals to emotion and to the validity of personal experience. As the schools and colleges gradually took control over the dissemination of Shakespeare in American culture, the lively Shakespeare of the stage tradition receded and was replaced by the misty figure created by literary historians in their struggle to mold the data of scholarship into a coherent whole. The complex vision of Shakespeare we have thus obtained is alienating students from further contact with Shakespeare because it is largely divorced from the stage tradition.
