Thus, in lieu of an actual post, have some sketches from the revenge tragedy seminar I took in grad school. (This is the sort of thing that passes for note-taking with me, and I kind of wish I had taken actual notes in that class, but oh well.)

Have I mentioned that I adore you?
ReplyDeleteMy secret obsession: graphic representations of Shakespeare's plays.
See, for example, this map of Hamlet.
I can't find G. W. Knight's chart of The Tempest, but it's in Bill Sherman's Norton edition and very worth looking for.
That is an awesome map! I particularly like that it has pirates!
ReplyDeleteSooo, good!
ReplyDeleteI love that you can tell which stick figure is Hamlet. It looks JUST LIKE HIM!!
(Have you seen the Peeps R&J?)
It's all in the inky cloak, Bardiac...
