Plot summary, “King John” by William Shakespeare in 5 Minutes - Book Review
"King John" is a historical play written by William Shakespeare believed to have been written in the mid-1590s. It portrays events during the reign of King John of England (ruled 1199–1216) and dramatizes events leading up to the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215, a pivotal moment in English history. The play is part of Shakespeare's cycle of history plays, which include works like "Richard II," "Henry IV," and "Henry V." "King John" explores themes of power, legitimacy, loyalty, and betrayal. The character of King John is depicted as both ambitious and ruthless, facing challenges to his authority both from within his own court and from external forces. The play also features other historical figures such as King Philip II of France and the Bastard (Richard Plantagenet), a fictional chara...

Shakespeare's Sonnets: Crash Course Literature 304
This week, we're learning about sonnets, and English Literature's best-known purveyor of those fourteen-line paeans, William Shakespeare. We'll look at a few of Willy Shakes's biggest hits, including Sonnet 18, "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day," Sonnet 116, "Let me not to the marriage of true minds admit impediment," and Sonnet 130, "My mistresses's eyes are nothing like the sun." We'll talk about what makes a sonnet, a little bit about their history, and even a little bit about how reading poetry helps us understand how to be human beings.

English Project on William Shakespeare 2024 #maenglsih #shakespeare #shakespearnotes #englishproject
Shakespeare’s exact birth date remains unknown. He was baptized in Holy Trinity Church in Stratford-upon-Avon on April 26, 1564, his mother’s third child, but the first to survive infancy. This has led scholars to conjecture that he was born on April 23rd, given the era’s convention of baptizing newborns on their third day. Shakespeare’s father, John Shakespeare, moved to Stratford in about 1552 and rapidly became a prominent figure in the town’s business and politics. He rose to be bailiff, the highest official in the town, but then in about 1575-1576 his prosperity declined markedly and he withdrew from public life. In 1596, thanks to his son’s success and persistence, he was granted a ...

"King John" is a historical play written by William Shakespeare believed to have been written in the mid-1590s. It portrays events during the reign of King John of England (ruled 1199–1216) and dramatizes events leading up to the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215, a pivotal moment in English history. The play is part of Shakespeare's cycle of history plays, which include works like "Richard II," "Henry IV," and "Henry V." "King John" explores themes of power, legitimacy, loyalty, and betrayal. The character of King John is depicted as both ambitious and ruthless, facing challenges to his authority both from within his own court and from external forces. The play also features other historical figures such as King Philip II of France and the Bastard (Richard Plantagenet), a fictional character who becomes a central figure in the narrative. While not as frequently performed as some of Shakespeare's other works, "King John" remains a compelling exploration of political intrigue and personal ambition set against the backdrop of medieval England.

This has led scholars to conjecture that he was born on April 23rd, given the era’s convention of baptizing newborns on their third day. Shakespeare’s father, John Shakespeare, moved to Stratford in about 1552 and rapidly became a prominent figure in the town’s business and politics. He rose to be bailiff, the highest official in the town, but then in about 1575-1576 his prosperity declined markedly and he withdrew from public life. In 1596, thanks to his son’s success and persistence, he was granted a coat of arms by the College of Arms, and the family moved into New Place, the grandest house in Stratford.
