Shakespeare Property of Trumbull Public Schools 1 CORE VALUES AND BELIEFS The Trumbull High School community engages in an environment conducive to learning which believes that all students will read and write effectively, therefore communicating in an articulate and coherent manner. All students will participate in activities that present problem- solving through critical thinking. Students will use technology as a tool applying it to decision making. We believe that by fostering self-confidence, self-directed and student-centered activities, we will promote independent thinkers and learners. We believe ethical conduct to be paramount in sustaining the welcoming school climate that we presently enjoy. Approved 8/26/2011 INTRODUCTION & PHILOSOPHY Why Shakespeare? Why offer an entire semester course devoted to the works of one person? Why is Shakespeare continually performed live throughout the world, in as many different forms and venues as possible? Why are Shakespeare’s plays continually adapted for big budget film productions? Harold Bloom offers a rationale in his massive tome Shakespeare: The Invention of the Human: what we consider to be our modern consciousness is the product of Shakespeare’s characters – that, by watching Shakespearean characters go through the process that Bloom calls “self-individuation” and “self-overhearing,” audiences get a glimpse into how we conceive of ourselves in the world and through that understanding gain a certain amount of control over that process. This course offers students who wish to expand on their experiences with Shakespeare in their freshman and sophomore English courses an opportunity to explore the richness and depth of the works in their original context as well as see how they continue to evolve to, in the words of Hamlet, “hold up a mirror to nature,” and engage in their own “self-overhearing.” The THS Shakespeare course continues to focus on the study and close reading of the text as well as the historical context of the plays. However, it also draws heavily on the idea that the plays were intended to be performed, and therefore the study undertaken will ultimately have an eye towards performance to help focus the study. The texts will be supplemented with examples of interpretations as well as other scholarly critique.

DOÇ. DR. GÜLBÜN ONUR HAZİRLAYAN ŞEFİKA BİLGE CANTEKİNLER KONYA, 2005 ÖZET 1930ların başında Hollywood ile birlikte yükselen Amerikan Film Endüstrisi vazgeçilmez kaynakları arasında ünlü İngiliz oyun yazarı William Shakespeare'in eserlerini ilk sıraya oturtmuştur. Sessiz sinemadan günümüz üç boyutlu animasyon film dönemine geçişte klasik Shakespeare oyunları da her yeni yönetmen ve yapımcıyla birlikte farklı bir boyut kazanmıştır. Tarihsel bir trajedi olan Shakespeare'in III. Richard adlı oyunu ilk oynandığı 1590lardan günümüze kadar geçen sürede en çok sahnelenen ama en az anlaşılan oyunlardan biri olmuştur. Buna bağlı olarak III. Richard'ın seçilen üç film uyarlaması oyunu farkh yonlerden ele almışlardır. İlk film İngiliz aktör- yönetmen Sir Laurence Oliver'in 1955 film uyarlaması III. Richard, ikincisi İngiliz yönetmen Richard Loncraine'in İngiliz aktör-yönetmen Ian McKellen ile birlikte çektiği 1995 yapımı III. Richard ve sonuncusu da Amerikalı aktör Al Pacino'nun yönetip başrol oynadığı Looking For Richard (Richard'ı Aramak) adlı filmidir. Bu çalışma, seçilen üç sahne ile oyunun kahramanı olan III. Richard'ın yükseliş ve çöküşünü temel alarak üç film uyarlaması arasındaki farklılıkları değerlendirmektedir. Ayrıca, a9ihs monoloğu, kur yapma, baştan çıkarma ile savaş sahneleri incelenerek bunların Shakespeare'in metnini ne derece yansıttıkları ve bu sahnelerin birbirinden nasıl farklı olarak ele alındığını belirtmektedir. ABSTRACT Within the rise of Hollywood productions at the beginning of the 1930s, American Film Industry put the works of famous British playwright William Shakespeare at its one of the most indispensable sources.

He has been a guest on many conversations ranging in topics from Shakespeare to popular culture, to fiction, to Westerns in movies and novels. But today, we're going to talk about Shakespeare and comedy. Before we get into that, I should say that you can watch a whole series of lectures by Paul, excellent lectures on Shakespeare, at the Shakespeare and Politics page of Great Thinkers, www.thegreatthinkers.org. So, go to www.thegreatthinkers.org, click on Shakespeare and politics, and you'll get a very well curated page with Paul's lectures and actually, the earlier conversations we've had on Shakespeare, et cetera. But enough of the promotion, let's get to the topic, so Paul, thanks for being with me. CANTOR: Pleasure being here. I know it's virtual. KRISTOL: Yeah. I know, next time. Next time in — CANTOR: Yeah, I think so. KRISTOL: Next time in reality, but. So, Shakespeare and comedy. So you wanted to talk about comedy? With most people interested in Shakespeare, the tragedies come to mind first, and they're more serious and heavy and weighty and all that.

  • King Richard Iii/Looking for Richard
    ENGLISH: KING RICHARD III/LOOKING FOR RICHARD Wherefore art thou Richard? There is no doubt that William Shakespeare’s King Richard III is relevant to twentieth century society; however, with changing contexts and values, its accessibility has been somewhat hindered. So, how do we solve this? Maise Smith explores this classic play in a contemporary environment. In his latest film, notable actor and director Al Pacino embarks on a quest in search of Richard, made famous as the Machiavellian of literary genius William Shakespeare’s King Richard III. Don’t know it? Read on. Looking for Richard follows Pacino as he questions the misunderstanding and disinterest surrounding Shakespeare’s collective work, and attempts to find contemporary meaning within King Richard III. It combines the general public’s opinion; experts conversing on Shakespeare’s context, meaning and use of techniques; and a filmic enactment of the original play. To understand the connections between the two texts, we must first look into Pacino’s purpose for creating a contemporary insight into such a classic play. The voxpops entwined throughout the movie depict the views of the American public, the overwhelming majority of whom possess a negative and ignorant perspective on his accessibility, and therefore relevance. Pacino takes it upon himself to counter this; to make Shakespeare accessible, and therefore relevant, aptly adopting the more prevalent medium of film to reflect his ideas. So, the question now evolves from “what are the connections between King Richard III and Looking for Richard?” to “what are the connections between King Richard III and the average, contemporary American viewer?” Answering the second aspect of the question invites a discussion of Pacino’s filmic choices.

King Edward IV is newly declared King, but his youngest brother, Richard (Gloucester) is resentful of Edward’s power and the general happiness of the state. Driven by ruthless ambition and embittered by his own deformity, he initiates a secret plot to take the throne by eradicating anyone who stands in his path. Richard has King Edward suspect their brother Clarence of treason and he is brought to the Tower by Brackenbury. Richard convinces Clarence that Edward’s wife, Queen Elizabeth, and her brother Rivers, are responsible for this slander and Hastings’ earlier imprisonment. Richard swears sympathy and allegiance to Clarence, but later has him murdered. Richard then interrupts the funeral procession of Henry VI to woo Lady Anne (previously betrothed to Henry VI’s deceased son, again killed by Richard). He falsely professes his love for her as the cause of his wrong doings, and despite her deep hatred for Richard, she is won and agrees to marry him.

Prescribed texts: King Richard III, William Shakespeare, c. 1593 Looking for Richard, Al Pacino, 1996 Al Pacino states in his docudrama, Looking for Richard, that he wants his film to show that Shakespeare’s King Richard III is about “how we think Opens with a quotation from and feel today.” This idea of enduring values is reinforced in the interview the text that leads to a close with the homeless man, who believes that Shakespeare “instructed us” and consideration of reshaping and a we still have lessons to learn from him about feeling and understanding. thesis about the influence of The sub-title of the film is ‘A four hundred-year-old work in progress’, context on values (directly suggesting that for Pacino there are central values and ideas in the play that connecting with words in remain relevant for contemporary audiences.

Areas investigated include Filming Shakespeare, Language, Documentary Styles and Representation. This series of study guides aims to provide teachers with valuableresource materials for the teaching of Shakespeare throughout the National Curriculum. Synopsis The American actor Al Pacino is the co-producer, director and star of the film ‘Looking For Richard’. His project intertwines the telling of the story of Shakespeare’s ‘Richard III’ with an intimate look at the actors’ and filmmakers’ processes as they come to grips with their characterisations and with translating their enthusiasm for the play onto film. The film ‘Looking For Richard’ follows their debates and revelations about the play, takes to the streets of New York to measure public opinion, visits the birthplace of Shakespeare and, finally, looks at a production of Richard III’. The film includes interviews with actors such as Kenneth Branagh and Vanessa Redgrave and seeks to prove that everyone can enjoy Shakespeare, and that his tales are timeless and universal. The completion of the film marks the culmination of a journey begun decades ago. when Pacino was touring colleges in the late 70’s talking to students who were reluctant to listen to Shakespeare and couldn’t see the relevance of his works. “But we would talk informally about the play and then I would read an excerpt” explains Pacino. Pacino notes, “By juxtaposing the day-to-day life of the actors and their characters with ordinary people, we attempted to create a comic mosaic - a very different Shakespeare.
