she doesn't look at notes constantly, and she goes nicely through the lesson in a solid structure, easy to follow, very adult oriented teaching, I think great teachers should teach like this

Being sequestered at home as a result of Covid 19, I decided not to waste the time and have been fishing through KZfaq for every Shakespeare play. I did this several years ago and found many more versions of the plays than are there now. There used to be the whole series of BBC Shakespeare plays from the 1970s, which had now famous actors, in their first roles and new to television. Then I found these brilliant lectures to flesh them out after watching therm, before watching a second version. While at school back in th 1950s / 1960s, Shakespeare was always on the curriculum - a play a term !! Those of us who are my age, when everyone received a classic education, with Latin from 6 and Greek - if you were bright - from 8 ! We cut our teeth on all classic literature from the age of 6 or 7 ! Our teachers were like this professor, in it to educate and widen our personalities The language therefore, is familiar and not difficult. Then, for French and Spanish 'A' levels at 16 years old, you had 4 classic books in those languages from the 16th century - Racine, Moliere / Calderon etc, to date, so we had to be fluent in the equivalent Shakespearean English, in those languages as well.

Delighted to have access to these. Thanks for posting, whoever was responsible. Dr. Garber is a wonderful, thoughtful guide through these plays.

It's been years since listening to her live and I never get tired of it...utterly entrancing. Professor Garber and Professor Greenblatt were the reasons I fell in love with Shakespeare

This professor is a true intellectual. Her lectures truly nourish my mind.

She’s amazing , I am not a native English speaker but I couldn’t stop the video till it’s end !!!

Thanks for a wonderful lecture. What a amazing luck we have those lectures at our finger tips. Eternally grateful I am to the professor and the person posted this.

Shakespeare is always connected to innovation processes digging high deeply in Shakespearian plays is no doubt enriching ones horizons and widening the literary perceptions

Great lecture! I really learned a lot about the time and background of Shakespeare's plays! Thank you!

Thank you for choosing to share with us, something we could not have attained on our own.

Thank you so much for sharing this with us . Listening to you in between patients at work; Makes my day so much more joyful .

So glad I stumbled across this excellent series! Out here in the provinces (my small town has six traffic lights) I crave intelligent discussions about the Bard and, alas, there are few opportunities! Thanks for the posting, good friends!

Superb lecture, she somehow touches on all the key issues in a way that is concise yet substantive. Such a useful perspective expressed brilliantly.

Amazing teacher. Thank you so much for the course.

Absolutely terrific. Thank you for posting.

Great lecture. Her pendant caught my heart 😍

"Let's not do seems like" - Thank you for the impartial, intellectual approach.

wow. thank you very much for posting all the lessons! brilliant. restores faith in the internet ;)

Vivid lecture indeed .....

This is excellent.

I liked your lecture on Shakespeare.

Excellent course

Wonderful

Brilliant mind she has.

Good point on the comedies vs the tragedies. It depends on the production, for a low budget Shakespeare in the Park atmosphere, I prefer the comedies. There is a slapstick element and crowd interaction that make them very relatable. The tragedies take more recourses to bring out. I would include the Histories in this. That said, there are some very good movies to watch, the BBC is always good. The Hamlet with Dave Tennent is incredible. I also really enjoy The Hollow Crown for the War of the Roses.

Useful for school college students

thanks to all whoever have searched for enlightening knowledge to enkindle the dying blind .

The "O" at the end of the lecture. Impressive explanation.

Do you have/can you make a playlist for this series. Please please add link in the description of these videos. You’re doing a magnificent public service. God bless.

Whether India or US..The teacher is same everywhere

i was 12 yrs old when this lecture was recorded

I have only read 'Hamlet' and I liked it. I'm planning to read more works by Shakespeare, Milton etc. Great lecture!!

Prof. Marjorie Garber seems to bring to her lectures the theatrical experience and device which Prof. Maynard Mack epitomized at Yale during the 60's.

I would like to invite you to a battle of wits, but i see you unarmed. I actually feel jealous a bit when i see someone who is more experienced about Shakespeare than i am. ❤

bookmarking! 9:15 12:18

58:00

I think I'll stick with Mr Men books.

Beware of secret misogynists in the comments

I would like to know the name of her book please.

hi

English literature...old pattern...

oh, she's dry

enough with the meta claptrap...get to it...

Despite her overbearing manner and the inevitable waves of left-wing ideology that listeners will be sitting through, this class on Shakespeare is worth anyone's time. She has obviously done a tremendous amount of work, and she certainly knows her subject.

zzzz
