Shakespeare

[Sam.]

Discuss works by the famous Elizabethan playwright, William Shakespeare.



I'm reading Macbeth at school, and since I'm quite enjoying it, I think I might read some more Shakespeare. Thing is, we're reading Macbeth in Modern English, which irritates me because the play just isn't the same. Anyway, discuss

.

 

[beowulf]

'throne of blood' is his take on macbeth



'Ran' is king lear

 

[Kasynlie]

I had to read Othello in school. Damn, is that boring or what?

 

[Peaceful]

Shakespeare makes me sick...

 

[Jazzy]

Never could get into William Shakespeare *Yawn*

 

[Evil Eye]

Never bothered reading it... hope they won't force me.

 

[Kasynlie]

It's not that bad if you get into it and are able to comprehend it.

 

[Nebulous's iconNebulous]

But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?

It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.

Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,

Who is already sick and pale with grief

That thou, her maid, art far more fair than she.





^ is very aggravating to read. People dont talk like that in 2010.
