Is it okay with you and LittleRusty if we stop paraphrasing Shakespeare and simply quote him directly? |

Perhaps you are making . . . much ado about nothing? |

Halflip you beat me to it! 2 pages is not nothing, as Lear said "nothing will come of nothing". I, for one, learned that B is for trumpet with Conn.
I thought Huntman10's post was brilliant. |

That's been attributed to Sir William of Preston (the "fifth bard"). _________________ '75 Bach Strad 180ML/37

Never been called a monkey before. Sorry for finding some humor in what had been written. _________________ "There are two sides to a trumpeter's personality,

Utterly brilliant, I'd missed it. Right on point with the King Lear quote. For history buffs, this was a few years after Sir William of Preston got back (many thought he was in exile but he was another bard). |

You are right. Flew right over my head and I am too damned old to go back to my h.s. or college english classes and have them school me again. _________________ "There are two sides to a trumpeter's personality,

Do not be decieved. Huntman 10's erudite post was actually written by Sir Francis Bacon. _________________ Jim Hatfield

King Lear is my favorite play! My dream was to see the very first production in 1606. For a long time, I studied the history of Shakespeare, his complete biography. There was a lot of admiration around him, but there was also criticism - have a peek here to find out how the writers criticized his Hamlet. In addition, you can also find other examples of research papers about Historical Criticism. But despite the opinions of others, still, the characters of Shakespeare are the height of perfection.
