Gain “Shakespeare Literacy.”
Over the semester it has been an amazing experience to be engrossed in Shakespeare's works. Through our group project i have had the chance to dive into countless more of Shakespeare's works besides those developed in our class. Story Board for Music Video. This was also great as i was able to plow through my favorite five in contributing to this list. The most time i spent with any one work was with The Tempest and Much Ado About Nothing. From both of these plays i was able to view a major motion picture of the play as well as the live performance of The Tempest.
Analyze Shakespeare Critically.
This is one that i tried to spend a little more time with the last half of the semester. One of the most interesting points that came to light was the physiology of the fool and that this role is still played in society today. This theme of the fool i followed all though King Lear. Also i really liked analyzing the idea of why the caged birds sing and what Lear was actually saying with these lines.
Engage Shakespeare Creatively
This is the second area that i tried to focus on this second time around. I'm more into source code than art but nevertheless King Lear and Glauster received there very own cpp and Turing machines. In addition to this through our final project i have memorized and recorded several of the lines from our movies including, King Lear's blow winds, and jealousy, ambition, forgiveness, a great price, and faults. (for the exact lines see Lyrics page) Like i mentioned on our group blog this was one of my favorite parts of the project.
Share Shakespeare Meaningfully.
I have never ceased to do this. However, one of the most notable conversations and topics of my blog has come from Tue.
