DAY2 Who was Shakespere? part2

This lack of historical data has caused some literary experts to question whether William Shakespere really wrote the works attributed to him. Skeptics cite a number of arguments to support their belief that Shakespere, the playwright, was really someone else. First fourteen plays have scenes that take place in Italy and demonstrate a detailed knowledge of Italian society and politics. However, there is no record of Shakespere's ever traveling to Italy. Skeptics also argue that the level of vocabulary and languageused in Shakespere's works reflects the writings of a highly educated person with a good understanding of law, politics, and history. Yet there is no record of Shakespere's ever attending a university.
If William Shakespere did not write the great plays and sonnets, then who did? The two most plausible candidates are Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford, a contemporary poet and friend of Queen Elizabeth I, and Christopher Marlowe, also born in 1564, a Cambridge garduate, playwright, and---allegedly---Elizabethan spy.



1. skeptic (n) a person who doubts the truth or value of an idea or belief
懷疑論者

2. cite (v) to mention something as proof for a theory or as a reason why something has happened, or to speak or write words taken from a particular writer or written work
舉出

3. demonstrate (v) to show something and explain how it works
顯示

4. plausible (a) seeming likely to be true, or able to be believed
貌似有理的

5. earl (n) a British man of high social rank, between a marquis and a viscount
伯爵

6. contemporary (n) belonging to the same or a stated period in the past
當代的

7. allegedly (adv) to state that someone has done something illegal or wrong without giving proof
據傳說地

DAY1 Who was Shakespeare?part1

William Shakespeare is widely regarded as the greatest English language playwright. He was a literary genius whose works are still read and performed all over the world. Shakespeare, the man, is something of an enigma, though, as very little is known about him. We do know that a William Shakespeare was baptized on April 26, 1564, the third of eight children of John and Mary Shakespeare. He lived in the town of Stratford-upon-Avon in England and when he was eighteen, he married a twenty-six-year-old woman named Anne Hathaway. They had three children, including one set of twins. For much of his life, he was employed as an actor in London, and he died in 1616, at the age of fifty-two.
Beyond those basic facts, little else is known about the life of Shakespeare. Even his birthday, April 23, is speculative and is based on the assumption that baptisms at that time took place three days after a baby's birth. In total, 154 sonnets and 37 plays, which are grouped into comedies, targedies and histories, are attributed to William Shakespeare. However, not one original manuscript has survived; the plays and poems we know today come from a collection known as the First Folio, published in 1623 after Shakespeare's death, the only portrait of him accepted as authentic appears on the title page of the First Folio.


1. enigma (n) something that is mysterious and seems impossible to understand completely


2. baptize (v) a Christian ceremony in which a person has water poured on their head, or is covered briefly in water, in order to show that they have become a member of the Christian Church
受洗.浸禮

3. speculative (a) based on a guess and not on information
推測的

4. assumption (n) something that you accept as true without question or proof
假定.假設

5. baptism (n) 浸禮.洗禮

6. sonnet (n) a poem that has 14 lines and a particular pattern of rhyme
十四行詩

7. manuscript (n) the original copy of a book or article before it is printed
手稿

8. folio (n) a book made of paper of a large size, especially one of the earliest books printed in Europe
對開本的書

9. portrait (n) a painting, photograph, drawing, etc. of a person or, less commonly, of a group of peop
肖像畫

10. authentic (a) If something is authentic, it is real, true, or what people say it is
可靠的.可信的
