Status Updates From How to Read and Understand ...

Not sure if the canned applause at the beginning and end of each "lecture" is required but I'm liking the direction this is taking.

I'm done with this course, but I'm not quite done with Shakespeare. 😁

As I suspected, Shakespeare's historical plays are not entirely factual. Creative license was in effect, in order to showcase the meaning behind the events.

Interesting to learn that there were still people alive who remembered the end of the War of the Roses, and that Queen Elizabeth I was not a fan of Richard being shown as handing over his crown. Probably even less so after they tried to depose her. 😳
