Happy Birthday Shakespeare
I could never express myself clearly to anybody, but there is one part of literature that I value a lot for explaining a lot of human feelings to the world. What’s there more to explain when you’ve got Shakespeare’s literature to explain what you really feel.
Today is Shakespeare’s Birthday. I celebrate his life, time, and works through sharing with you what, where, and how I’ve experience Shakespeare in my life. We are having a huge event in honor of Shakespeare in Happy Birthday Shakespeare.
While I was in high school, hearing about Shakespeare gave me all the intimidation I needed to fear learning his literature. As a person who really has quite a little to say to anyone, this certainly made me walk away from it. When we started our lessons in Shakespeare, there was this one teacher who inspired me to learn and understand the writings; how to feel, move, say and act it.
During the classroom times, our teacher Ralph Cicero, enthusiastically speaks several lines of Shakespeare’s plays, sonnets and books to the class. What interested me the most is how my teacher portrayed the feelings passed through the writings. One piece that you can feel the feelings from Shakespeare’s literature is through the Sonnets.
Although sonnet line “Shall I compare thee to a Summer’s day?” has been used so many times, but it literally explains quite a lot of your feelings to someone whom you admire, love or like. How else can you look for something to describe how you feel but through that line?
How can you express anger and vengeance but through Shakespeare’s Macbeth? A line from Macbeth would be “Is this a dagger which I see before me, The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee.” Anger is greatly portrayed on such story that the imagery used alone explains all how vengeance is horrid and at the same time amazingly clear in Macbeth.
Having all these to say, it’s inspiring to think that you’ve got Shakespeare’s literature to back you up. Having remembered all these, I couldn’t have learned all about Shakespeare without my enthusiastic teacher and the ever so intriguing lines from Shakespeare.
Now, I am in a company who is really enthusiastic and crazy about Shakespeare that we incorporate him into our works. Shakespeare, I salute you! Happy Birthday!! :)
