The way to really appreciate Shakespeare is to watch a first class theatrical production, especially live. This past fall we went to a production of King Lear at the Stratford Festival in Ontario. It was a weekday matinee and we were at first dismayed to discover that half the audience comprised young teenagers -about 500 of them. We expected a lot of distracted talking and texting and, basically, a a group of sullen, bored adolescents who wished they were anywhere else. It was so gratifying to witness the most rapt audience I've seen in long time, culminating in a long standing ovation.

I'm 26 and over the past four years or so have absolutely fallen in love with Shakespeare. His poetry and creativity is so amazing its beyond compare. Im actually writing a novella about a boy who falls in love with Shakespeare in middle school and it becomes all consuming to him, and he starts living Shakespeare instead of his mundane modern reality, and eventually he cant let go of it and accept the real world. Its going to be a tragedy, and I hope to bring at least a spark of justice to this great story tellers legacy. It'll be called The Pragmatic Dogmatism of a Stagnant Mind if anyone reading this is interested. I hope to release within a year

A reflection on The Tragedy of Hamlet!
The Tragedy of Hamlet is one of Shakespeare's most famous and enduring works. The play follows the story of Prince Hamlet of Denmark, who is visited by the ghost of his father and urged to seek revenge against his uncle, who has murdered his father and seized the throne.
One of the things that makes Hamlet so special is its complex characters. Hamlet himself is a deeply troubled and conflicted character, struggling with grief, anger, and self-doubt. Other characters, such as Ophelia, are also richly drawn and add depth to the play.
Another noteworthy aspect of Hamlet is its exploration of themes such as revenge, betrayal, and the corrupting influence of power. These themes are still relevant today, and the play's exploration of them continues to resonate with audiences.
Hamlet is also notable for its language, which is poetic, eloquent, and full of memorable phrases. Lines such as "To be, or not to be" and "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark" have become iconic and continue to be quoted and referenced today.
In conclusion, The Tragedy of Hamlet is a masterpiece of literature that continues to captivate audiences and inspire reflection on important themes and human experiences. Its enduring popularity is a testament to Shakespeare's enduring influence and the timeless appeal of his work. 1:11

Zeus sent Nephele to Earth to punish King Ixion, who Zeus suspected of trying to violate Hera.
In Troilus and Cressida Shakespeare grapples with the ultimate human tragedy-war. 1:11
Zeus created Nephele from a cloud to look like his wife, Hera.

this video could grab my attention. Sorry
idk, Shakespeare sounds and looks like stuff to scam stupid rich people
Bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I am sick. I don't like it.
Shakespeare was the theatres greatest craftsman of plays with which he proceeded to torture generations of innocent British school children. He wasted no time at all in saying the slightest thing of interest to them. Instead he made sure of including endless speeches in the outdated prose of his time in his plays so that the torture on the minds of the innocent school children was an exquisite joy he beheld ;for he was a fiend so opposed in his soul to the long suffering children of Britannia. May the great Queen Britttania rescue us all from this devil.
😳😳 serious?
Nice Troll
Both of these topics should be studied at a university level by those with the inclination and passion. The point of general education for kids should be to inculcate a love for learning.
