Plays

Modern plays are mostly based on Shakespeare's Hamlet. While they contain certain aspects of the original play, there are also modifications. One can simply say that these plays are modified because of Hollywood, to be able to help the audience associate themselves with the play more and make it easier to understand.

William Shakespeare's plays are commonly categorised as Histories, Comedies and Tragedies. These categories were given in the first, official published versions of the plays known as "The First Folio" published some years after his death.

The Histories were:

King John,

Richard II,

Henry IV part 1,

Henry IV part 2,

Henry V,

Henry VI part 1,

Henry VI part 2,

Henry VI part 3,

Richard III and

Henry VIII.

They are all based on the lives of English Kings and apart from the first and last, describe the events in English History leading up to, during and the end of The Wars of the Roses.

The thing is, Benedick and Beatrice cannot meet each other without getting into a fight. But everyone sees that even though they fight all the time, what they are really fighting is the fact that they are terrifically attracted to each other. However, their pride will not let them admit it (does this sound like Jane Austen at all?). How could Benedick tell Beatrice that he loves her when he can expect to get a cutting sharp-tongued remark in reply? The same applies to Beatrice: How can she says that she really cares for Benedick when he keeps railing on about how he hates her?

To solve this problem, the men will allow Benedick to overhear their conversation in which they will bemoan the fact that Beatrice is suffering in silence for her love of Benedick, who is treating her mean. Benedick will be encouraged to admit his love when he hears this.

Meanwhile the women (Hero and Ursula) will do exactly the same thing to Beatrice.

It works and it's hilarious.

Cassius plans to forge letters that may make it seem like the villagers think that they are unhappy with caesar as the king and bring his ego up more so it can target the fact that brutus's love for Rome is far greater than the love he has for Caesar.

In "The Glass Menagerie," Tom Wingfield grapples with internal and external conflicts. He feels torn between his responsibilities to his family, particularly his mother Amanda and sister Laura, and his desire for personal freedom and a life of adventure. This conflict is exacerbated by his dissatisfaction with the monotonous existence of a warehouse job, leading to feelings of guilt and frustration. Ultimately, Tom's struggle highlights the tension between duty and the pursuit of individual dreams.

He talks about the meeting with the witches, and how they vanished into thin air. He tells her about the predictions that he will be Thane of Cawdor and King hereafter. Finally, he tells her that the Cawdor prophecy has already come true, so there is good reason to believe in the "king hereafter" part as well.

Shakespeare's Othello.

Oversimplifying greatly ... Othello is a dark-skinned African Muslim (a "Moor") who is a high-ranking and hot-tempered general in the army of Venice, Italy. Cassio is Othello's trusted lieutenant. Desdemona is Othello's girlfriend, whom he marries early in the story. Iago (ee-ah-go) is a deviously sly soldier in Othello's army; he is jealous and bitter and wants to destroy Othello, because Othello has chosen Cassio to be his lieutenant instead of choosing Iago. Roderigo is another soldier who Iago easily manipulates to do his bidding. Everyone else in the story takes part in action that revolves around these 5 main characters. Iago tries to get Desdemona's father and the Duke of Venice to believe that Othello engaged in sorcery and kidnapping to get Desdemona to marry him, but that doesn't work. Fortunately for Iago, Othello doesn't realize that Iago is out to get him. Iago gets Cassio drunk, gets Roderigo to pick a fight with Cassio, and then convinces Othello that Cassio started the fight. Othello strips Cassio of his rank. Iago convinces Cassio that Othello's wife Desdemona can help convince Othello to give Cassio his rank back. Iago helps Cassio arrange a secret meeting with Desdemona. Then Iago convinces Othello that Cassio and Desdemona are having a love affair behind his back. Iago convinces Roderigo to kill Cassio, but Cassio is only wounded. Iago kills Roderigo so he can't tell anyone that Iago put him up to the murder attempt. In a fit of jealous rage, Othello smothers Desdemona who he believes has been having sex with Cassio. Cassio, Iago and others arrive at the scene of Desdemona's murder. Othello repents of his fit of temper that has caused him to kill his beloved wife. Desdemona's maid reveals that Iago made her set up false evidence that led Othello to his tragic incorrect conclusion. Iago kills the maid. Othello stabs Iago but only wounds him. Othello begs Cassio to forgive him for his unfounded jealousy, which he does. OMG, the dead Roderigo has left a letter fully incriminating the villainous Iago, who is led away to what we assume is torture and a gruesome death. Othello, crushed by having allowed Iago to lead him to ruin, gives a final speech and commits suicide with his dagger. Everyone comes back to life and bows to the audience, who are weeping and applauding.

Shakespeare created over 3000 words and/or phrases that we use in our everyday speech. Examples: One fell swoop, fashionable, eyeball, wild goose chase.. and so many more. He's said to be the biggest influence in the English language than any other writer in history.

Because of the way the term "tragic hero" has been treated by AC Bradley and those who followed him, it has almost become a term of art, with an arcane meaning quite divorced from the actual way that Shakespeare's tragedies work. But really a tragic hero is the main character in a play which ends with the destruction of that main character, which usually means his death. If the play is well-written, we feel a sense of regret and sadness that someone for whom we had some sympathy has come to a sticky end. This is certainly the case with Othello.
