Shakespeare in love

Viola (dressed as a man) interpreting the play with Will:

Guillem: What light is light, if Sylvia be not seen?
Eugeni: What joy is joy, if Sylvia be not by?
Guillem: Unless it be to think that she is by,
Eugeni: And feed upon the shadow of perfection.
Guillem: Except I be by Sylvia in the night,
Eugeni: There is no music in the nightingale;
Guillem: Unless I look on Sylvia in the day,
Eugeni:There is no day for me to look upon.
Guillem: She is my essence, and I leave to be
Eugeni: If I be not by her fair influence.
Guillem: Foster'd, illumin'd, cherish'd, kept alive.

Eugeni: TAKE OFF YOUR HAT!
TAKE OFF YOUR HAT!

Guillem: My hat?
Eugeni: Where did your learn to do this?
Guillem: But why?
Eugeni: Wait there! Wait there!

William Shakespeare (1564-1616) was born in England. He was a poet and a playwright.

At the age of 18, he married Anne Hathaway who bore him three children: Susanna and twins Hamnet and Judith. Between 1585 and 1592, he began a successful career in London as an actor, writer, and part owner of a playing company. He appears to have retired to Stratford around 1613, where he died three years later. Few records of Shakespeare's private life survive, and there has been considerable speculation about such matters as his.

There are many works of William

All's Well That Ends Well As You Like It The Comedy of Errors Cymbeline Love's Labours Lost Measure for Measure The Merry Wives of Windsor The Merchant of Venice A Midsummer Night's Dream Much Ado About Nothing Pericles, Prince of Tyre Taming of the Shrew The Tempest Troilus and Cressida Twelfth Night Two Gentlemen of Verona Winter's Tale	Henry IV, part 1 Henry IV, part 2 Henry V Henry VI, part 1 Henry VI, part 2 Henry VI, part 3 Henry VIII King John Richard II Richard III	Antony and Cleopatra Coriolanus Hamlet Julius Caesar King Lear Macbeth Othello Romeo and Juliet Timon of Athens Titus Andronicus	The Sonnets A Lover's Complaint The Rape of Lucrece Venus and Adonis Funeral Elegy by W.S.

In Shakespeare’s time there were no female actors. This was because acting was not considered an honourable job. The role of women had to be played by young boys who had not gone through puberty. This was because they had higher voices. Shakespeare himself even acted in some of his own play. Some actors received their lines just before the play. Some even got them as they were performing. They used a technique called “cue acting”. This was when someone sat behind the curtains and whispered the lines to the actors. This then led to a technique called “que scripting”. This was where the actors got only their lines, instead of the entire play. The spectators had a range of seating options available. They could choose to pay the cheapest ticket and be a “groundling”.

In his plays Shakespeare uses many different types of language techniques to create his plays. Such techniques include: rhythm, rhyme, alliteration, repition, assonance and onomatopeia. Rhythm is used alot to create a feeling almost like a beat to a song, it adds characteristics to the otherwise boring words. Alliteration, Repition, Rhyme and Assonance are all used alongside rhythm to help create a more distinct beat to his plays Repition is also used alongside rhytm to help create a beat Onomatopeia was used alot in plays because in Shakespeare's time there was no electricity to produce sounds artificially
