…hey Tony, Vito, Joey. This guy says Shakespeare was a Protestant Italian. And this guy says he was a Catholic from England. WTF? This proposition must be very confusing to members of the mob (ie the Mafia not the RAF). A non-catholic Italian?! A catholic Engl;ishman? The mob of course are used to people’s identities […] …aka classical climate theory: an ancient racialism ingrained in our thinking through the influence of intuitive humoral psychology. Sh’s generation recorded the falling from grace of this particular theory. Nowadays you’ll find it in your horoscope in any newspaper. Thin body types are secretive, fat types are jovial, medium build types are adventurous. […] …apparently some diplomatic wags made this one up when discussing Kaiser Wilhelm’s forays into peace making on his extreme eastern front. I derived it from the book titled ‘The Orientalist’ sub-titled ‘Solving the Mystery of a Strange and Dangerous Life’ by Tom Reiss. He is seeking the eventful history of Kurban Said, aka […] John Weever and John Davies are two contemporaries who reported on the reputation of Shakespeare/Shakspere without contorting and cutting him in twain. Both are commended for reporting on Sh’s accomplishments in verse and neither condemned for exposing him as not him who writ it. Both placed him within the writing scene, printshops and theatres, […] …so an examination of compositional strategies Sh used in his Sonnets to give them the appearance of depth. Cribbed from the introduction (p. 19-21, 38) of the Art of Sh’s Sonnets by Helen Vendler. 1. TEMPORAL. The establishment of several retreating “panels” of time, representing episodes or epochs in the speaker’s past, gives him […] …having read parts of ‘Shakespeare by Another Name’ by Mark Anderson last night and in response to the idea of Roland Emmerich doing a movie about how SHakespeare didn’t write Shakespeare. I think it rather interesting that none of the following playwrights have never questioned the fact that Shakespeare didn’t do what is said […] …or a book called The Pursuit of History by John Tosh. It never fails to amuse my tiny mind how author’s names can be seen as (admittedly lame) jokes on their chosen topic. Prominently from one conspiracists’ viewpoint, Thomas Looney whose choice of Oxenforde as Shake-speare i would say is ‘looney’. But as they […] …Everyday i add a little more to the relevance of this site for the post-modern student of Shakespeare. The Theory links have been expanded with Youtube videos on the major theories. For example did you know Freud loved cocaine? And he was a conspiracist? Or that Karl Marx loved Shakespeare? And was probably a Stratfordian. […] Martin Wiggins is a professor at the Shakespeare Institute. Invariably whilst I was a student there, he was dressed in black with a shock of silver hair. His intelligence and learning are humbling. His love of his subject matter cloaks his being. A good professor in other words. Every student he has ever had, has […] …that moment in conversation and interaction when a lot is being said, though nothing is being said. Pause and silence. There, where being and empathy begins and the acting is done. The razor’s edge that cuts through the play as known narrative to the play as it re-creates itself again. The players their text […] |
