I am doing "Julius Caesar" for the Powerplay module.

Everybody has to study at least one Shakespeare text... the list is
[X] Julius Caesar
[ ] King Lear
[ ] The Tempest
[ ] Hamlet (studied in conjunction with "RAGAD")

Likewise.

I also did The Merchant Of Venice in Year 8, and Romeo & Juliet and Richard III in Year 11.. (Also read Macbeth, Julius Caesar and Hamlet for my own amusement.)

Shakespeare is a category unto himself.

yeah, these are my shakespeare highschool years:
macbeth (year 7)
twelfth night (yr 8)
merchant of venice (yr 9)
othello (year 10)
romeo and juliet (yr 11)
the tempest (yr 12)

i thought that all yr 12s do the same text, if u do different texts, how can u be examined?

i dont like shakespeare so im just wondering if they do it in advanced.

I did "Julius Caesar" in Year 10, "A Midsummer Night's Dream" in Year 11 and am now doing "King Lear".. which I admittedly slightly enjoy. :apig:

Yep.
Actually, in the exams, when they give you your texts, such as In the Skin of a Lion, or whatever, in the Text type area, where there is Film, or Prose Fiction, they have "Shakespeare"

every single kid in advanced does shakespeare.
and they just mark the questions the same, when they are written, they are written to the same difficulty. its like everyone does diff AoS and stuff, its not only shakespeare that we do diff ones.

doing king lear...and we did timing of the shrew and 10 things i hate about u in year 11.....b4 that..we never did shakespeare!!! in yr 10 our class did crappy books- but the other top class did shakespeare and more intellectual texts...

 

[Jumbo Cactuar]

If you want my advice (which is rare) DON'T so King Lear. It is just like doing god damn drama but under the alias of english, which is unfare to the people who are only doing arts subjects cause they are compulsory! ie me... But if dramas your thing and you want to watch the same play/movie in five different ways, then be my guest!

 

[Leanne]

umm.. u dont get a choice to do king lear....its chosen by the teachers and school..........................

 

[sweetcherry]

Yeh... I did Advanced English...

Year 11 - Antony and Cleopatra

Year 12 - Julius Caeser (I never did that text as I left school before the class started on it)

 

[hipsta_jess]

gawd damn, how can you people go all of your high skool life without doing shakespeare until senior skool? i have dun a shakespeare text every yr since yr 7!

 

[Loz#1]

I did Hamlet.

Quite enjoyed it actually, went and saw Bell Shakespeare's Hamlet and loved it.

Othello was year 11, didn't enjoy that as much.

 

[Over97]

yeah othello is a prick
