Tuesday, May 13, 2014: Hamlet Cont.

Today, we continued reading Hamlet.  We read up to the end of Scene 2 (we will start/continue Scene 3 tomorrow). We did not get through very much due to the fact that we worked on proper reading (not stopping at the end of lines, pronunciation mattering, using periods as full stops (including change of direction or change in whom one is speaking to), semicolons as stops, and commas as yield signs when driving) and word meaning ('a means "he", "ere" means "before").

If you were not here, you can go online and look up "No Fear Shakespeare". On this site, search out Hamlet. One side of the page gives you the reading; the other side gives you the modern version. It is best, however, not to miss classes during this time.
