“40 Everyday Phrases We Owe To Shakespeare – Edudemic.” Edudemic. N.p., n.d. Web. 20 July 2014.
This site was essentially found because I was searching for famous quotes that come from Shakespeare that we use in our everyday language. I came up with this photo instead that was about that exact thing. As they say a picture is worth a thousand words, so I choose using the picture instead of just using words. I think this was VERY effective and I am really happy with the photo.
“Ancient Greek Theatre.” Greek Theatre. N.p., n.d. Web. 18 July 2014
I already had a very good unit on Greek theatre, but his site helped with a few extra details and pictures. Really nice site.
“The Black Death: Bubonic Plague.” The Black Death: Bubonic Plague. N.p., n.d. Web. 20 July 2014.
This site gave me statistics and number for discussion of the play. And as much as it had some pictures, I just felt they were too graphic to use for a discussion on theatre.
Again, I have a previously strong unit for most of my information, but his site added in some nice photos and details. Strong site.
“An Introduction to Greek Theatre.” YouTube. N.p., n.d. Web. 20 July 2014.
I used You tube to fill in with some more pictures and expert discussion on the Greek Theatre from The National Theatre. Greek Theatre can be a tough unit to remember names and gods, etc. This particular video reinforces what we have discussed as it repeats some major concepts, while also adding in some new details.
“Shakespeare Online.” Shakespeare Online. N.p., n.d. Web. 20 July 2014.
This was a whirlwind of information, but I had not had much information on why we study Shakespeare and his universality in actual writing, so I got a great deal of that from this site. The site was very through about all sorts of things related to Shakespeare.
“The World of Commedia Dell’Arte.” YouTube. N.p., n.d. Web. 20 July 2014.
I used You tube a couple of times as I thought that sometimes a concept is easier to understand with more that just still images. This particular video expresses how they might have looked and moved in Commedia that words just don’t quite equal. Again, it is from The National Theatre.
