she doesn't look at notes constantly, and she goes nicely through the lesson in a solid structure, easy to follow, very adult oriented teaching, I think great teachers should teach like this
Being sequestered at home as a result of Covid 19, I decided not to waste the time and have been fishing through UA-cam for every Shakespeare play. I did this several years ago and found many more versions of the plays than are there now. There used to be the whole series of BBC Shakespeare plays from the 1970s, which had now famous actors, in their first roles and new to television. Then I found these brilliant lectures to flesh them out after watching therm, before watching a second version. While at school back in th 1950s / 1960s, Shakespeare was always on the curriculum - a play a term !! Those of us who are my age, when everyone received a classic education, with Latin from 6 and Greek - if you were bright - from 8 ! We cut our teeth on all classic literature from the age of 6 or 7 ! Our teachers were like this professor, in it to educate and widen our personalities The language therefore, is familiar and not difficult. Then, for French and Spanish 'A' levels at 16 years old, you had 4 classic books in those languages from the 16th century - Racine, Moliere / Calderon etc, to date, so we had to be fluent in the equivalent Shakespearean English, in those languages as well.
It's been years since listening to her live and I never get tired of it...utterly entrancing. Professor Garber and Professor Greenblatt were the reasons I fell in love with Shakespeare
There was this one lecture I was watching from this Professor where she discussed the fact that because men played women characters back in the Elizabethan Era, it may have influenced the way Shakespeare wrote the women characters in his plays. Idk but it was a very interesting topic!
Thanks for a wonderful lecture. What a amazing luck we have those lectures at our finger tips. Eternally grateful I am to the professor and the person posted this.
Shakespeare is always connected to innovation processes digging high deeply in Shakespearian plays is no doubt enriching ones horizons and widening the literary perceptions
So glad I stumbled across this excellent series! Out here in the provinces (my small town has six traffic lights) I crave intelligent discussions about the Bard and, alas, there are few opportunities! Thanks for the posting, good friends!
@@jasonyntig717 Good for you! The truth is we moved last year to a larger city and now we have too many traffic lights! But now we can walk to Starbucks!!!
This is exciting stuff, but I don't understand her objection to "seems like." Does she want you to say "is like"? This "seems like" a hard and fast rule for her, which can squelch a meaningful discussion or completely valid ideas one is attempting to express. If I were in the class, I might be too intimidated to express my thoughts for fear I could not meet her standards of articulation.
Do you have/can you make a playlist for this series. Please please add link in the description of these videos. You’re doing a magnificent public service. God bless.
Good point on the comedies vs the tragedies. It depends on the production, for a low budget Shakespeare in the Park atmosphere, I prefer the comedies. There is a slapstick element and crowd interaction that make them very relatable. The tragedies take more recourses to bring out. I would include the Histories in this. That said, there are some very good movies to watch, the BBC is always good. The Hamlet with Dave Tennent is incredible. I also really enjoy The Hollow Crown for the War of the Roses.
Well, you started your reading with the very best! I just finished his Richard III and I can highly recommend it. Richard III is one of the very best villains in all of literature, by the way, and yet he has a dark humor. Happy reading!
@@vozamaraktv-art5595 "Of man's first disobedience..." Oh well that will be an experience! I read the poem decades ago and that opening line is all I remember! Enjoy!
I would like to invite you to a battle of wits, but i see you unarmed. I actually feel jealous a bit when i see someone who is more experienced about Shakespeare than i am. ❤
I will give a thought. Nobody knows who Shakespeare was. He also plagiarized a lot. Almost none of his plot lines did he actually write. Go further, many people question if he even wrote some of the plays he's accredited for writing. Is it possible that Shakespeare was not just one person. Perhaps an editor, with many writers under his study. An analogy, take Walt Disney. That would explain his extraordinary genius.
Yup, because "extraordinary genius" and "Walt Disney" are almost synonymous, aren't they? Everyone thinks Walt drew all those cartoons himself. You really know how to pick an analogy.
Despite her overbearing manner and the inevitable waves of left-wing ideology that listeners will be sitting through, this class on Shakespeare is worth anyone's time. She has obviously done a tremendous amount of work, and she certainly knows her subject.
Dolphins, that deals with physics. It is an old proverb, that any sailor on an island would know, a storm is on the horizon. That is due to atmospheric pressure. There is another saying, when sound travels far and wide, a storm is soon to betide. The clouds form in a high pressure zone. the dolphins react to the pressure by rising to the surface.

Delighted to have access to these. Thanks for posting, whoever was responsible. Dr. Garber is a wonderful, thoughtful guide through these plays.
Did you study in Harvard University ? I have some questions for the University.
This professor is a true intellectual. Her lectures truly nourish my mind.
She’s amazing , I am not a native English speaker but I couldn’t stop the video till it’s end !!!
Same
Yes, I feel the same way. And despite the difficult topic it is easy to understand

It's a bit Shakespearey. But I think of her with no clothes and it makes me less nervous.
Great lecture! I really learned a lot about the time and background of Shakespeare's plays! Thank you!

Superb lecture, she somehow touches on all the key issues in a way that is concise yet substantive. Such a useful perspective expressed brilliantly.

"Let's not do seems like" - Thank you for the impartial, intellectual approach.

What about Shakespeare in Love?
Very helpful
Backformation even more originally: from linguistics. (Like "to laze" from "lazy").
Prof. Marjorie Garber seems to bring to her lectures the theatrical experience and device which Prof. Maynard Mack epitomized at Yale during the 60's.
Frank Cacciutto and Galileo in his time
Plz tell me the book name???
I don't know how students take notes with professors talking at this speed!

Changing Shakespeare's characters' gender? Would they like to be all women? What about Shakespeare? Would he agree?
Why Shakespeare is so important in American knowledge?
fascinating that all the female characters in shakespeare's time were played by male actors
I wonder about that. They say they were men, and yet how many women in the plays disguised themselves as men?

Does Shakespeare inventSKIMS?
