1 SHAKESPEARE RESEARCH PROJECT BY: GO & BB MRS. JESTICE ENGLISH 1/ PERIOD 1 MAY 7 TH /272/0/1/william_shakespeare_meme_by _drewness360-d5gb1sa.jpg
2 BACKGROUND INFORMATION Shakespeare was born a Catholic Born April 23 rd Died April 23 rd 1616 He married Anne Hathaway, and had three kids. Shakespeare had a secretive love life, and difficult family relations During his life the Bubonic Plague and Religious dilemmas were occurring The Elizabethan Era was the high point of Shakespeare s career. Shakespeare wrote over thirty plays and over one-hundred and fifty sonnets! We study Shakespeare because he was a famous writer, producer, screenplay writer, actor, choreographer, director, and literate- his works today are still educated literary pieces that have an enriched culture, brilliant themes, enlightened literature, and prolonged biblical references.
3 ESSENTIAL QUESTION How is the personal life of William Shakespeare and England s cultural society and inspirations reflected in Shakespeare s literate work?
4 CLAIM Claim #1-Shakespeare hardly ever showed his personal love affairs in his work.
5 WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE'S MARRIAGE RECORDS TO ANNE HATHAWAY Shakespeare rarely wrote sonnets about his wife, but he once said she was the second best bed with the furniture After three years of living with Anne and his children he left to go to London because he felt trapped.
6 SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE Shakespeare had a romantic view on Romeo and Juliet based off one of his love affairs with an unknown women Later in his work he shows that he doesn t bring his love lives into his work because he wants to do stories that would relate to his audiences.
7 MY MISTRESS, WHEN SHE WALKS, TREADS ON THE GROUND: AND YET BY HEAVEN, I THINK MY LOVE IS RARE, AS ANY SHE BELIED WITH FALSE COMPARE. (SHAKESPEARE, SONNET CXXX) Shakespeare wrote a total of 154 poems in his lifetime and 27 of them were about a women named The Dark Lady The Dark Lady is a women Shakespeare supposedly had affairs with when he was in London.
8 Claim #2-Shakespeare hardly brought his family into his work
9 WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE S BAPTISM RECORDS.
10 SHAKESPEARE'S FATHER HAD FINANCIAL PROBLEMS
11 HOW I MAY BE DELIVER D OF THESE WOES, AND TEACHES ME TO KILL OR HANG MYSELF (SHAKESPEARE, KING JOHN, ACT 3, SCENE 4)
12 CLAIM The deadly bubonic/black plague was occurring during Shakespeare s life and this epidemic had tremendous impact on his play works as seen in his famous play, Romeo and Juliet. es/2012/10/black-death- Skull.jpg Ml5BanBnXkFtZTcwNjE3ODMyMQ@@._V1_SY31 7_CR4,0,214,317_.jpg
13 history/bubonic-plague.jpg THE BUBONIC PLAGUE ngfield/eliz/images/plague2eolmper1 gangrenehandsg.jpg o1_500.jpg
14 EXPLANATION The doctors were aware of the harsh fullness of the disease as they covered themselves to protect themselves from airborne diseases. The disease itself was cruel literally killing you from a black death as seen by the photo of the infected hand. The photo of dead bodies shows the realism and the severity of the plague as it was one of the deadliest, if not the deadliest, epidemic of England. The last photo, Ring- Around a Rosie, shows that the plague still effects children/ people today as urban has it that this nursery rhyme refers to the black plague William Shakespeare lived in the time of the harsh black plague which clearly had influence on his work
15 WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE PLAYWRIGHT AND POET BY PAMELA HILL NETTLETON lliam-shakespeare-playwright-poet-pamela-hillnettleton-hardcover-cover-art.jpg Bubonic Plague tormented Europe from s Germs for plague were on fleas that lived on black rats, people lived to be about fifty Plague gave people fevers, chills and black painful bumps Person who caught disease were almost certain to die and spread it Lack of medicine, illnesses common among children and families Laws were passed to stop people from gathering in groups (EX. Theaters) AQEiEHvPxI/AAAAAAAAADk/Ry7bkqlYhTo /s320/plague.gif The Black Death Bubonic Plague During the Elizabethan Era By L.K. Alchin There were high mortality (death) rates amongst Elizabethan children and this was true of the brothers and sisters of Shakespeare some of whom were struck down by the Bubonic plague
16 EXPLANATION Pamela Hill Nettleton shows people that the plague was a deadly outbreak People lived to be very young and the plague was common in families and very contagious Theatres/ large groups would shut down Globe Theater Shakespeare There was no stopping the plague as there was lack of medicine Living in these conditions influenced Shakespeare to include his environment in his works L.K Achin shows people that the bubonic plague took the lives of people very close to Shakespeare which perhaps made the writer want to include this environmental factor in his work even more.
17 THE PLAGUE IN ROMEO AND JULIET BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE press.com/2012/03/romeo-and-juliet.jpg I am hurt. A plague o both your houses! (Act 3, Scene 1, 94-95) - Mercutio says this multiple times (Redrick) and this is seen as a terrible insult, as if someone todat were to say I hope a gunman shoots your family. And too soon marred are those so early made. The Earth hath swallowed all my hopes but she... (Act 1, Scene 2, 12-14) -This shows the reader that Lord Capulet s hopes and aspirations (children) most likely died from the plague Also explains age difference and marriage at young age to reproduce and recover the lost population Here in this city, visiting the sick, And finding him, the searchers of the won, suspecting that we both were in a house, where the infectious pestilence did reign, sealed up the doors, and would not let us forth, So that my speed to Mantua there was stayed. (Act 5, Scene 3, 8-13) - The plague infected the town as Friar went to visit. Furthermore, the plague was contagious which caused guardsmen to deny Friar the ability to leave the town. This delayed Friar to deliver the message to Romeo which indirectly resulted in the death of Romeo and Juliet. FL /Centricity/Domain/304/Ro meojuliet.jpg
18 CLAIM(S) Shakespeare portrays his undecided belief of fate versus freewill incorporating them into each other through Catholicism and other religions in his play Romeo and Juliet. Claim #5-William Shakespeare portrays fate in freewill situations Claim #6 -William Shakespeare portrays freewill in fate situation
19 FATE VERSUS FREEWILL /commons/1/14/1815-regencyproposal-woodcut.gif
20 CAMBRIDGE ACADEMIC CONTENT DICTIONARY Tragedy- A dramatic or literary work depicting a protagonist engaged in a morally significant struggle that usually ends in death. A tragedy usually includes Suicide- An act or instance of intentionally killing oneself Murder- the act of killing a person deliberately -The struggles in a tragedy often reflect a person s. Wyrd- one s corresponding to their fate or personal destiny Freewill- done of your own accord Martin Luther Declaring marriage as "a worldly thing... that belongs to the realm of government" VS. 2 Cor. 9:7, The bible discussing freewill in every aspect "Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver."
21 EXPLANATION People believe in fate as a way to make their lives simpler People chose to make their own decisions (freewill) to make their lives simpler The quotes provide background that during the time of William Shakespeare their was the religion of England (Protestant) and his own religion (Catholic) which had different perspectives he captured and wrote about Definitions provide information and background of some of the aspects William Shakespeare includes in his work
22 SHAKESPEARE INCORPORATING FATE INSIDE OF FREEWILL IN ROMEO AND JULIET O, what more favor can I do to thee than with that hand that cut thy youth in twain to sunder his that was thine enemy? (Act 5, Scene 3, ) *This is considered freewill by the audience since Romeo is choosing to recompensate Tybalt by committing suicide and putting Tybalt s enemy to rest But.. Is it fate that because Romeo sinned and killed Tybalt, Romeo would have to die because he committed murder? My poverty but not my will consents (Act 5, Scene 1, 80) *This is considered freewill by the audience since Apothecary is making the choice to do it for the money and not because he thinks its morally correct. But.. Is it fate that a poor underclass citizen would sell an illegal substance for money regardless his belief. An if a man did need a poison now whose sale is present in death in Mantua, here lives a caitiff wretch would sell it him. (Act 5, Scene 1, 53-55) *This is considered freewill by the audience because regardless that it is an illegal crime to sell the poison, Apothecary the caitiff wretch (miserable person) choses to sell it for the money. But.. Is it fate that Apothecary, the miserable, poor man, would sell Romeo and sabotage the upper-class gentlemen with the poison that is illegal for the money?
23 SHAKESPEARE INCORPORATING FREEWILL INSIDE OF FATE IN ROMEO AND JULIET this day s black fate on more days doth depended. This but begins the woe others must end. (Act 3, scene 1, ) *This is seen as fate by the audience since it says so, and it says that fate will bring more bad luck - But isn t it freewill by the characters because they chose to do the actions they did to get themselves in a worsening feud/ situation O, I am fortune s fool! (Act 3, Scene 1, 145) *This is seen as fate by the audience since he is referring to it as his fate which got him in the situation - But isn t it freewill because he got himself in the situation because of the choices he made on his own accord? a plague on both your houses (Act 3, Scene 1, ) *This is considered fate by the audience because it reminds people of the fate that both houses will receive Romeo and Juliet's death indirectly from the plague -But Isn t it the freewill by Juliet and Friar that truly made the plague effect the houses because they chose to do go against Juliet s wyrd and fake her death
