- This clip looks at the original pronunciation of Shakespeare.
The British Council and the English-Speaking Union welcomed Ben Crystal as part of the English Language Council lecture series. This 2014 lecture marked the 450th anniversary of the birth of William Shakespeare.
The guardian of English poetry, the inventor of over 1,000 words still in use today, and one of the greatest players with our language, Shakespeare has given us a treasure trove of English to read - funny how so much of it doesn't make sense until it's spoken out-loud.
Actor and author Ben Crystal explores the accent, the theatrical conventions, and the world of Shakespeare, to reveal a bright and beautiful English.
THIS GUY IS INCREDIBLE!!!
u still look like zuckerburg
Ben, you have a distinctly beautiful voice! It gently rings in a nice color!
"...Anyway!" Love it.
From the first time I heard that speech as I child, I was convinced that Shakespeare was a closet Yorkist. And now even more so - he gave our last Plantagenet king, the last monarch to die in battle, the energy of a knight in battle in his speech.
A horse! A horse! My KINGDOM for a horse!
You missed another bit of toilet humour Jakes name

Fascinating

This is why the best actors and actresses come from England.
