“Some are born great, some achieve greatness, some have greatness thrust upon them.” - Twelft Night, William Shakespeare.
Hi, people! This month
is the first month of our year of reading plays. Some of us (probably
most) have been very excited about it. I too, am very excited about
reading plays, especially Shakespeare's. He's one of my favourite
poet and playwright, and none can deny that he has grand influence
over English language and literature.
This month's theme is Shakespeare's Tragedy. Have you enjoyed reading Othello or Hamlet or Julius Caesar or Romeo and Juliet? If so, you must have noticed how interesting Shakespeare's characters are. That's exactly our meme theme this month.
I'd like to list some
questions that might help us all to describe the character of our
choices. You may or may not use these questions in your post. They
are just guidelines. Feel free to add or remove anything you see fit
or not fit.
- Who is this character?
- Why is he/she significant?
- How is his/her personality?
- What is so interesting about this character?
By the way, Fanda also has her weekly meme called Character Thursday. You may participate as well, combining the post for this meme and Fanda's Character Thursday. I'll be waiting for your characters. Enjoy the play.
