Unrequited love?

 

The following entry shows us how Elisa from IISS Peano-Rosa imagines the thoughts that Helena would note down on her journal after an eventful day.

 

 

Dear diary, 
 
I'm so confused! Yesterday, Hermia told me about her plan to escape into the woods during the night with Lysander, but, like a fool, I confessed it to the man I am in love with, Demetrius, who is Hermia's betrothed ... I think she will never forgive me! 
 
Returning to us, today a very strange thing has happened: both Lysander and Demetrius said that they are madly in love with me! How is it possible? Weren't they both in love with Hermia? I don't understand if Demetrius, who has refused me all this time, is making fun of me to make Hermia jealous or has really understood that I am the woman of his life. Maybe he has finally opened his eyes and realized that he shouldn’t run after a woman who doesn’t reciprocate his feeling when he has one next to him who loves him more than herself... I hope with all my heart that he has serious intentions, and if not, I promise I will never forgive him! 
 
I will update you on what will happen next.

Love,
Helena

  ABOUT ROMEO AND JULIET  Romeo and Juliet is a worldwide famous play based on a tragic story of young lovers with enemy families.  The whole story is about the conflict between hatred and love which is the main opposition in the play.  You will be able to see many feelings and situtations because of this two powerful emotions through the process. Selfishness, pain, anger, trust, sacrifices... And at the end of the story, regrets.   With Shakespeare's poetic and unique style, this experience is going to make a lasting impression on you and maybe will make you think about your priorities and what kind of situations can your behaviours cause.

Puck's sense of guilt

This time Rebecca from IISS Peano-Rosa has turned into Puck for one day and has explored the fairy's feelings.     Athens Dear Diary, today I feel a little guilty and sad because I’ve made a mess. Last night my King, Oberon, gave me an important assignment and I totally failed. I had to squeeze a little of a magic juice into Titania’s eyes and I managed to do that, but then I made a terrible mistake. I poured some of the juice into Lysander’s eyes, but he was the wrong person. Demetrius was, in fact, the boy my King referred to. Obviously, most of the fault is mine, but Oberon was unclear when he described the couple. So, Lysander fell in love with Helena. Then Oberon worked his magic on Demetrius. Thus, both Lysander and Demetrius loved Helena. With my mistake I made Hermia miserable because Lysander, with his words, broke her heart. Then, because of me, Helena was annoyed by Demetrius and Lysander’s behaviour. Moreover, these two young boys almost killed each other. Luckil...

Comparison of Traditional And Modern Theater by Imaginary Modern Shakespeare ( Zümra-Tokat MPİBFL)

 Hello, I'm Shakespeare! I was born in England in 1564. I am known as England's national poet. Throughout my life I have written world-renowned works such as Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet and Macbeth. I also used the genres of tragedy, comedy and history in my theater plays. Now I'm going to tell you a little bit about theater. Theater has attracted the attention of many people since ancient times. And it has two types in itself. These are two types: modern theater and traditional theater.  One of the most important features that distinguishes modern theater from traditional theater is the presence of stage and decor in modern theater. However, stage and decor are almost non-existent in traditional theater. Another difference is that modern theater is based on written texts. However, plays are not performed in traditional theaters depending on the written text. There is improvisation in traditional theatre. Traditional theater is based on comedy. One of the most important source...
