932. What is so great about Shakespeare? 🎭 (with Mum & Dad)

  • Resumen

  • In this episode I talk to my parents about the topic of William Shakespeare. We discuss the enduring appeal and significance of William Shakespeare's work, biographical details of his life, the key themes in Shakespeare’s plays, and the impact of his language on modern English. We try to explain the qualities that make Shakespeare great, using examples from plays like Hamlet, Twelfth Night, and Macbeth.

    We also consider the challenges of understanding Shakespeare and suggest ways for newcomers to engage with his plays, such as watching film adaptations.

    Enjoy a conversation about this important figure in English language and culture, with two other important figures - my mum and dad!
