I have a good amount of knowledge about Shakespeare. Shakespeare was an english playwright who wrote about 12 plays in the time period in the 1600's. Shakespeare's plays were preformed in the world-renowned Globe Theatre in London and still stands there today. This is a recreation of the original theatre because the original theatre burned down around in the late 1600's. (I"VE BEEN THERE) He also was married to Anne Hathaway, and had two daughters. There are many rumors about Shakespeare, one of which is that he was gay, because he wrote a sonnet (another thing he was known for,) about a little boy. There is another rumor about Shakespeare that is not as well know is that Shakespeare was a name the queen used to write plays, because women could not act, write or perform during that time period. Shakespeare's most famous works include A Midsummer Nights Dream, Romeo & Juliet, The Twelfth Night, and Mac Beth. They are all very interesting and different, some though have a similar message, one of which is forbidden love, and love were it is not meant to be. I know much about three of those plays from personal experience. I was flute the fiddler, in the Marion Cross School recreation of a Midsummer Nights Dream. We read Romeo & Juliet at the Richmond Middle School. We saw the blockbuster movie a version of the play there as well. I saw an eclectic, modern day reenactment of Mac Beth two weeks ago in Brookline, MA. We saw the Twelfth Night at the High School, and I have seen the blockbuster movie she's the man. I also saw Richard the third preformed by only men in The Globe Theatre in London.
I know that Shakespeare was and is a very famous plkaywrite. He wrote many plays and much of those havr been turned into movies. There are many groups that do his plays.
As everyone has said so far, he is a famous person and he was also a very talented person. Even though it was about 400 years ago he was writing his plays, they are still extremely popular and people still use his for of writing today. As matt said he also wrote a lot of sonnets, I don't really know anything about them but I know of them. I also know that his plays were preformed in the well know Globe Theater. Last year we spent a lot of time on the book Romeo and Juliet and we made sure we understood every little detail of the book because for some of use it was very easy to understand at some points.
I know a few things about Shakespeare like the fact that he was a prominent author in the 1600's and that he wrote many plays, stories and poems. His plays are still very popular today, especially the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet. In 8th grade, we spent a lot of time analyzing Romeo and Juliet, and we talked about Shakespeare and his plays. We learned about how most of his plays were completely acted by men because women weren't allowed to act in those days. Also, the theaters the plays were put on in usually had a place in the front with no seats for the poor people, and a place in the back for the wealthy ones. Another of his plays I am very familiar with is Twelfth Night because it is my mom's favorite play and movie.
I know quite a bit about Shakespeare due to the fact that in eight grade we had to read Romeo and Juliet. We also had to study him, and find facts about him. My collection of knowledge on Shakespeare is random and i found interesting things about him last year. For instance in his time all of his plays were acted out by men and young boys. LAst year we learned about the language used in his play. Everything has a deeper meaning than i ever expected. I have only read a few by him. The Tempest, Romeo and Juliet, and Mid summer nights dream.
I have not read very much by Shakespeare, but what I have read I have liked very much. The has a skill for weaving people's lives together in unimaginable ways, and when. in a play you realize how two characters are connected, it is a situation that makes you want to smack for fore head, and makes you think, "Why didn't I see that earlier?" I really like that feeling because it makes the author, in this case Shakespeare, seem very clever. It takes a fair amount of skill to plan out, and when it is put into action, it puts the reader in the exact situation that I just depicted. As for what I have read by Shakespeare, I have read Romeo and Juliet, and Twelfth Night. I liked all the confusion of identities of Twelfth Night, and last year we read Romeo and Juliet, which I had never read before. It was good to read Romeo and Juliet because there is so much reference to it today in popular culture. Almost every TV comedy or drama references it, and when they did and I was watching, I was completely lost. In conclusion, I like reading Shakespeare, but I haven't read much of it. It is interesting for me to see how people are liked by family, and bby random chance or fate.
I agree a lot with Giulia. All that she said is true, about how last year we found facts on him, and learned many interesting facts about theatre in the 1600's. We mainly focused on the language and the meaning of the terms that he used in English class, because for the most part, it was the first time that any of my class mates or I had been introduced to Shakespeare.
I know Shakespeare, yet not as well as I should like to. I know that he was an English play-write in the 1600's, who wrote many plays particularly for the entertainment of Queen Elizabeth. Many were tragedies of love and woe such as Romeo and Juliet. Others included love triangles that could be viewed as comedies, such as Twelfth Night.
I know shakespeare pretty well. I know that he was an english playwrite who lived in the renaissance time period. He wrote many plays that were very popular then and still are now. Most plays were either tragedies or romance. I have also acted in a couple shakespearian plays, such as romeo and juliet, a midsummers nights dream, and hamlet. I have also seen many others.
Well, I know that he was quite the fellow. He was born somewhere in England, (I believe). But, worte many plays that were very famous. He wrote in a very specific type of writing called Iamic Pentameter. This consisted of writing each line with a specific amount of sylabols in each line, I think it was 5. He also left his "second best bed" to his wife when he died, which is quite comical.
