Shrew and Power of One online resource links

Hi All,
  • Please remember, as you read/view, that how a work is acted/directed/edited will effect the way we interpret it. 
  • One of the goals of critical theory is to become aware of multiple possible ways to read texts. Allow for multiple possible readings and be able to support your ideas with evidence from the text. Employ the use of : 'Gendering', Power theory, and Psychological theory.

To help you in your reading of The Taming of the Shrew, by William Shakespeare, I am providing the following link/s:
No Fear Shakespeare Remember that you must quote the original text in all your work.
Globe theatre staged version video  We will watch an alternative version in parts. You do NOT necessarily need to view this link.

For those of you who asked about an audio book for The Power of One by Bryce Courtnenay here is one option: Audio book option
  • Please read along with listening or
  • Pre listen prior to reading or re listen after reading
  • Be careful, if you are doing the 'free trial' not to let your trial turn into an ongoing cost if you don't want to continue the service. You may need to cancel at some point,if so, set a notification on your phone to do so.
You received the whole Shrew unit package today. Do NOT just do the work ahead. Preparation helps but I do want your submissions to reflect the work we do in class. Soon I'll pop up a timeline for this unit so you can plan accordingly.

A reminder to those who need to be away periodically, to let me know in advance so we can modify your timelines/assignments where necessary.

See you Thursday.
Ms.S
