Is Shakespeare Our Contemporary? By Mailen & Paula
Based on major global interpersonal and intrapersonal conflicts, Shakespeare’s plays and poems constitute a valuable source of input for modern worldwide film industries. Universal, appealing and relevant to human beings, the central themes – sorrow, loyalty, revelry, love, treason, death and fate – underlying the Bard’s works are still consumed by 21st century audiences. Our craving for well developed and tragic plots clearly reveals Shakespeare’s immortality. Beyond doubt, the bard is our faithful contemporary.

Girls,I’ve also liked your digital poster, just like us, you’ve focused on Shakespeare as being our contemporary. The interesting point of all this is that I’ve found several presentations developing the same topic and that is, at least for me, of great help when it comes to exchanging and incorporating more and more ideas. Well done!
ReplyDeleteYour digital poster is great! We've also included modern films inspired by Shakespeare's plays and different adaptations. It's really interesting that you've also added other films that were influenced by his plots and themes to prove that he is undoubtedly our contemporary. Congrats!
