Main characters. Psych major. Gotta rant. Really sassy. Had fun. I sorry.................
Lear--Ok before anything else, I think it's LEGIT that Professor Burton named his son after King Lear. I think if I were a boy, I would so want that to be my name. Plus, I was reflecting on the legacy that would leave for him. And the more I started thinking...Lear is pretty awesome. I mean, yeah, he's probably a bit senile. Ok a lot a bit...but I think Shakespeare is able to do a lot with the Lear character. Mostly the idea that we are all imperfect and we all lose sight of the things we should really appreciate. Lear is HUMAN and I like that Shakespeare reminds me of that. Not all things are fairytales. Sometimes, life is about CHOICE!
- Evidence: uuummmmm I can't find the quote I want at the moment. I'll get back to you, Lear.
- Evidence: "Unhappy that I am, I cannot heave my heart into my mouth: I love your majesty according to my bond; nor more nor less." - I.i.
Gloucester--I got nothin bad to say about you. You're just a nice guy. Thanks for introducing me to the theme of blindness in the play. Really quite cool...but I'm sorry about the eyes. You'll be happy to know there is a town in Massachusetts that bears your name. Known for it's fishing and resort center. Wonder who was thinking when they named THAT one. Thought you might be interested...
Kent--Wow. Hello loyalty. Way to go, dude.
Albany--Hey. Way to stick up for father-in-law there. You're a nice person too.
Cornwall--Dude. CHILL! Why you so angry all the time.
:) Well, I hope you enjoyed my complete and unnecessary SASS!.......but I don't feel THAT bad...because these are fictional characters. I'm hoping to expand on this post later but I REALLY gotta go do my Psych homework. :) Thanks for listening.
haha, chloe, i barely know you and yet... love you :). haha, alright, maybe more specifically, i love the way you write your posts. you analyze. the key word of those two being YOU. I can totally tell that it's you, and it doesn't make me bored...like i'm reading an english paper :). so...thank you.
ReplyDeleteDear Sarah, I FEEL THE SAME WAY EVERY TIME I READ YOUR BLOG!!!!! Friend request?
ReplyDeleteThanks so much. I really appreciate that. I was kinda worried about is post because I feel like it's more of my reaction to the characters rather than an analysis...so that means a lot. I figured that while we have this awesome informal medium of blogging, that I might as well take advantage of it.
P.S. CONGRATS on your marriage. The pictures you posted were BEAUTIFUL. More please? hahaha find more ways to relate it to Shakespeare! hahahahahaahahaha
