RENAISSANCE
Renaissance, or Renaissance(French Renaissance, Italian Rinascimento) - an era in the history of European culture that replaced the culture of the Middle Ages and preceded the culture of modern times.
Chronological framework of the era: XIV-XVI centuries.
William Shakespeare (1564-1616)
William Shakespeare is born April 23, 1564 year in the English town of Stratford-upon-Avan.
The surname "Shakespeare" can be translated from English as "spear-shaking".
William Shakespeare's father, John, was a craftsman, merchant (wool trader), and in 1568 became mayor of Stratford.
William's mother, Mary Ardenne, was the daughter of a farmer from Wilmcote.
From some sources it is known that William Shakespeare studied at a grammar school.
Shakespeare House
The architecture of the house is typical of that time. On the ground floor there is a living room with a fireplace, a large hall with an open fireplace and further along the corridor - the workshop of the owner of the house. On the second floor of the house there are three bedrooms. A small cottage and the room that now houses the kitchen were added to the house later.
In 1582, William Shakespeare marries Anne Hathaway.
In the mid-1580s, Shakespeare and his family moved to London.
Shakespeare made money by guarding horses at the theater. This position was followed by behind-the-scenes work at the theatre.
Only a few years later, William Shakespeare received his first small role.
Before working in the theater, Shakespeare also had to master the profession of a school teacher.
The Globe Theater where Shakespeare worked
The GLOBE is a public theater in London.
It operated from 1599 to 1644.
At the entrance it was written: “The whole world is a theater, and the people in it are actors.”
The name was borrowed from Greek mythology and refers to Hercules, who held the globe on his shoulders.
Under King James I, the theater received the status of "Royal" .
In 1612, Shakespeare left the theater and returned to Stratford, where he lived until his death. The last plays written by Shakespeare for his troupe date back to 1612-1613. After this, the playwright fell silent. Researchers suggest that Shakespeare was ill for the last four years of his life.
The great playwright died at the age of 52 and was buried under the altar of the Church of the Holy Trinity in his hometown.
"Oh, good friend, in the name of God,
Don’t touch the ashes under this stone,
Do not disturb the sleep of my bones;
Damn be the one who touches them!
"Shakespearean Question"
- Could a person from an illiterate family be a genius?
- If Shakespeare is the author, where is the evidence: there is not a single manuscript of his plays.
- This is easy to explain: the Globus Theater burned many times, during the fires the scenery, costumes, and manuscripts were burned.
- As for illiteracy, we can recall Russian self-taught writers: Maxim Gorky, Sergei Yesenin.
Shakespeare's works
Shakespeare's legacy is
154 sonnets,
several small poems, poetic cycles,
37 plays (comedies, tragedies).
Literary theory
- Comedy((Greek) - song of a cheerful crowd) - a type of drama in which the action and characters are interpreted in funny forms or imbued with the comic (Molière, Beaumarchais, Griboyedov, Gogol).
- Sonnet- a poem of 14 lines with a special rhyme.
- Tragedy((Greek) - song of the goat) - a type of drama based on a particularly intense, irreconcilable conflict that ends in the death of the hero.
Tragedy "Romeo and Juliet"
Shakespeare sharply condemns feudal foundations, the tyranny of parents, who became an obstacle to the happiness of their children and led them to death.
The main thing for Shakespeare is the man himself, and not his origin and condition.
- Shakespeare had a gigantic vocabulary - from 20 to 25 thousand words, but a modern Englishman with a higher education uses no more than 4 thousand words.
- Shakespeare introduced about 3,200 new words into the English language - more than his literary contemporaries combined.
- Not a single manuscript of Shakespeare has survived. Only six signatures on official documents made by his hand have survived.
- According to Ben Jonson, Shakespeare “knew a little Latin and even less Greek,” although, as his plays show, he was fluent in foreign languages - French, Italian, Greek and Latin.
- Shakespeare's entire family - father, mother, wife, children - were illiterate. At the moment there is no information that Shakespeare himself was literate.
- Shakespeare's direct line was interrupted in 1670 with the death of his granddaughter Elizabeth.

William was born in Stratford-upon-Avon (Warwickshire) in 1564, baptized on April 26, the exact date of birth is unknown. Tradition places his birth on April 23: this date coincides with the precisely known day of his death. In addition, April 23 marks the day of St. George, the patron saint of England, and legend could specially coincide with this day the birth of the greatest national poet.

His father, John Shakespeare (1530-1601), was a wealthy artisan (glover) who was often elected to various public positions. He did not attend church services, for which he paid large fines (it is possible that he was a secret Catholic). Shakespeare's mother, born Mary Arden (1537-1608), belonged to one of the oldest Saxon families.
Slide 4
It is believed that Shakespeare studied at the Stratford “grammar school”, where he received a serious education: the Stratford teacher of Latin language and literature wrote poetry in Latin. Some scholars claim that Shakespeare attended King Edward VI's school at Strath Ford-on-Avon, where he studied the works of poets such as Ovid and Plautus, but the school's journals have not survived.
Slide 5
In 1582, he married Anne Hathaway, the daughter of a local landowner, who was 8 years his senior and already pregnant at the time of the marriage; in 1583 they had a daughter, Susan, and in 1585, twins: a son, Hamnet, who died in childhood (1596), and a daughter, Judith. There are only assumptions about the further (over seven years) events of his life.
Slide 6
In 1592, the diary of entrepreneur Philip Hensloe mentions Shakespeare's historical chronicle Henry VI, which was shown at Hensloe's Rose Theater. In the same year, a pamphlet by playwright and prose writer Robert Greene was published posthumously, where the latter angrily attacked Shakespeare, without naming his last name, but ironically playing with it - “shake-scene,” paraphrasing a line from the third part of “Henry VI” “ Oh, the heart of a tiger in this woman’s skin!” like “the heart of a tiger in the skin of a performer.” When the Globe Theater was built in 1599, Shakespeare received one tenth of the total income. At the same time, Shakespeare formalized the nobility for his father and became a nobleman himself. Under James I, the company of Shakespeare and Burbage became the King's Men (1603). In 1597, Shakespeare bought the second largest house in Strath Ford. In 1605, he bought the right to receive tithes from the lands closest to the city. In 1612, Shakespeare, for unknown reasons, left the theater and returned to his native Strath Ford, where his wife and daughters lived.

His father, John Shakespeare, was a wealthy artisan (glover) and moneylender and was often elected to various public positions, and was once even elected mayor of the city. He did not attend church services, for which he paid large fines. His mother, née Arden, belonged to one of the oldest English families. The house, built in the 16th century, is located on Henley Street in the city centre. To our contemporary eyes, the house seems simple and very small, but in those days only a very wealthy person could afford such a home.

Around 1587 Shakespeare left Stratford and moved to London. The Globe Theater, where Shakespeare's troupe worked.

Slide 12
The actual dimensions of the Globe are unknown, but its plan can be reconstructed almost exactly based on scientific research conducted over the past two centuries. These data indicate that it was a three-tiered, open, high-walled amphitheater with a diameter of 97 to 102 feet (29.6-31.1 m), which could accommodate up to 3,000 spectators. The sketch by Wenceslas Hollar shows the Globe as a round building. Later, in the same form, the no longer existing theater was included in its engraved so-called. "Long Landscape" of London (1647). However, in 1997-1998. the discovery of a small part of the Globe's foundation showed that it was a polygon with 20 (or possibly 18) sides.
Slide 13
Along the inner side of the theater wall there were boxes for the aristocracy. Above them there were galleries for wealthy citizens. There were three levels of seating in total. Some privileged spectators were right on the stage. At the base of the stage there was an area called the stalls (or, in the back of old inns, the yard), where, for 1p, people (groundlings) had to stand to see the performance. Groundlings ate hazelnuts during the performance - during the excavations of the Globe, many nut husks were found preserved in the mud - or oranges.

Globus theatre"
Sometimes a tent was pulled over part of the stage - blue if they were playing a comedy, and black with gold stars if they were playing a tragedy. Streams of blood spilled onto the stage from bull bladders hidden under clothes. If a villain died, the blood was black.
Slide 18
Creation.
In 1592, Shakespeare became a member of the London acting troupe of Burbage, and from 1599, also one of the shareholders of the enterprise. Under James I, Shakespeare's troupe received royal status. For many years, Shakespeare was engaged in usury, and in 1605 he became a tax farmer of church tithes.
Slide 19
The Shakespearean canon includes 37 plays; 18 appeared during Shakespeare's lifetime, 36 were published in the first collected works of Shakespeare (1623, "Pericles" was not included). Attempts to establish the chronology of Shakespeare's work have been carried out since the 2nd half of the 18th century. Below is a list of Shakespeare's plays with the dates of their writing, the periodization of creativity and the genre definitions accepted in Shakespearean criticism.

Some Shakespeare scholars (including Soviet ones - A. A. Smirnov) divide Shakespeare's work into three periods, combining the 1st and 2nd (1590-1600) into one.
Slide 22
Shakespeare's work absorbed all the most important radiations of the Renaissance - aesthetic (synthesizing the traditions and motifs of popular romantic genres, Renaissance poetry and prose, folklore, humanistic and folk dramas) and ideological (demonstrating the entire ideological complex of the time: traditional ideas about the world order, the views of feudal defenders -patriarchal structure and political centralization, motives of Christian ethics, Renaissance neoplatonism and stoicism, ideas of sensationalism and Machiavellianism, etc.).

Last years of life…
In 1612, Shakespeare retired for unknown reasons and returned to his native Stratford, where his wife and daughters lived. Shakespeare's will, dated March 15, 1616, was signed in illegible handwriting, leading some researchers to believe that he was seriously ill at the time. Shakespeare died on April 23, 1616.
Slide 51
Burial place
Three days later, Shakespeare's body was buried under the altar of Stratford Church. On his tombstone is written the epitaph: Friend, for God's sake, not a swarm of Remains taken by this earth; He who is untouched is blessed throughout the ages, And cursed is he who touches my ashes.
Slide 52
The last years of his life he retired from literary activity and lived quietly and unnoticed with his family. This was probably due to a serious illness - this is indicated by Shakespeare's surviving will, clearly drawn up hastily on March 15, 1616 and signed in a changed handwriting. On April 23, 1616, the most famous playwright of all times died in Stratford-upon-Avon.

Interesting facts about the writer
Shakespeare had a gigantic vocabulary - from 20 to 25 thousand words, but a modern Englishman with a higher education uses no more than 4 thousand words. Shakespeare introduced about 3,200 new words into the English language - more than his literary contemporaries combined. Not a single manuscript of Shakespeare has survived. Only six signatures on official documents made by his hand have survived. According to Ben Jonson, Shakespeare “knew a little Latin and even less Greek,” although, as his plays show, he was fluent in foreign languages - French, Italian, Greek and Latin. Shakespeare's entire family - father, mother, wife, children - were illiterate. At the moment there is no information that Shakespeare himself was literate. Shakespeare's direct line was interrupted in 1670 with the death of his granddaughter Elizabeth.
Slide 57
Slide 58
Shakespeare's works are unusually multifaceted. At one time, doubts were expressed that they could come from the pen of one person - especially such a relatively poorly educated one as the far from brilliant actor from Stratford. The celebrated plays, with their intricate plots and unforgettable characters, amaze with the depth and breadth of human feelings and reflect the author's knowledge of history, literature, philosophy, law and even court etiquette. How did this provincial, who belonged to the lower strata of society, know how aristocrats behave and lawyers speak? Perhaps the actor allowed his name to be used by an educated person who occupied a high position and wanted to keep his authorship secret?
Slide 59
Despite intriguing hypotheses about a mysterious author hiding under the name of a country actor, most scholars today recognize William Shakespeare of Stratford-upon-Avon as the author of great works. Shakespeare was recognized as a genius during his lifetime, and his contemporaries did not have the slightest doubt about his authorship. It is useless to try to explain where he got the experience and talent necessary to create his masterpieces. Wouldn't it be better to be grateful to that young man who 400 years ago went to London, leaving his humble past behind him? His action made the world a much richer place.

“He was not a man of an era, but of all times.” -Ben Jonson
If you stop loving - so now, Now that the whole world is at odds with me. Be the most bitter of my losses, But not the last drop of grief! And if it is given to me to overcome grief, do not strike from an ambush. Let the stormy night not be resolved A rainy morning is a morning without joy. Leave me, but not at the last moment, When I become weak from minor troubles. Leave it now, so that I can immediately comprehend that this grief is more painful than all adversities, that there are no adversities, but only one misfortune - to lose your love forever.

Shakespeare had a gigantic vocabulary - from 20 to 25 thousand words, but a modern Englishman with a higher education uses no more than 4 thousand words. Shakespeare introduced about 3,200 new words into the English language - more than his literary contemporaries combined. Not a single manuscript of Shakespeare has survived. Only six signatures on official documents made by his hand have survived. According to Ben Jonson, Shakespeare “knew a little Latin and even less Greek,” although, as his plays show, he was fluent in foreign languages - French, Italian, Greek and Latin. Shakespeare's entire family - father, mother, wife, children - were illiterate. At the moment there is no information that Shakespeare himself was literate. Shakespeare's direct line was interrupted in 1670 with the death of his granddaughter Elizabeth.
