Subject :# 14159 Curs Monogràfic: Shakespeare through Performance
Student´s name: Mengual Roca , Vanessa
Title of the paper: SHAKESPEARE: THE WOMEN’S VOICE
Author or topic: William Shakespeare
Abstract: In this paper I have compared three comedies written by Shakespeare: Much Ado About Nothing, As You Like It and Twelfth Night. I have established a parallelism between them focusing on female’s characters. In the introduction I explain the reasons behind my choice. In order to make clear how these female characters are depicted in these plays, I have provided to each play a section with lots of representative examples about Beatrice, Rosalind and Viola‘s speeches and actions. In addition to this, Shakespeare wrote in the Elizabethan times so it deserves another section where the reasons about female’s behaviour in his works will have justification. If you are interested in my opinions and in the main points of this paper it is gathered in the conclusion.
Auto-evaluation: I think I deserve a mark of 8 taking into account all the effort behind my work in order to write a paper with visual examples provided by text and films analysed.
