Abstract
1) This milestone is about discovering what influenced Shakespeare's writings in terms of writing style and each play's plot as well as what influences he has had on society today. I plan to create a picture slide show of what Shakespeare's surroundings as he was writing several plays for readers so they can visualize what Shakespeare was trying to coney through words. 2) In high school I had read and wrote many papers about Much Ado About Nothing, Romeo and Juliet, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Hamlet, A Thousand Acres (based off of King Lear) and Macbeth. Then when I started WPI I helped with the sound engineering of Taming the Shrew and I read parts of the Merchant of Venice. I have taken two theater classes in my freshman year. In my Introduction to Drama class, I preformed several lines from Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing.
3) your major takeaways from the experience. This can and should be very similar to the paragraph you use to summarize this milestone on your Profile Page. It should contain your main Objective, so be sure to clearly state a one-sentence statement that summarizes your main objective for this milestone such as "a comparison of the text of Medieval English choral music to that of the Baroque" or it may be a question such as "to what extent did religion influence Christopher Wren's sense of design?"
Introduction
No matter where you are, if you mention the name Shakespeare, someone is bound to know and can possibly name at least one of his plays. He is one of the most prolific writers of his time writing at least 38 plays. I want to explore his effect in London as well as near his residence in Stratford-upon-Avon as well as what effect these places had on his writings. I will be attending different performance of several of his works as well as visiting his home. I will be writing about my experiences and taking many pictures.
