I was never good at Literature but was forced to study or just read Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and other Shakespeare's literature when I was only in F.1 and F.2 (equal to grade 9-10 in Canada's high school system I think)....

I know some people do and some don't. I really don't! In high school we went through "Romeo and Juliet" and "MacBeth". I understood "Romeo and Juliet" but never could get into "Macbeth"! Never seen any of the plays,either. Had a...

Star-crossed Lovers

carlynganda @carlynganda (749) • Philippines 19 Jun 10

It is a phrase used to describes lovers who's relationship is thought to be doomed right from the start. It could either be because of fate written in the stars (not compatible astrology), or they have a different religion, or...

lucyland @lucyland (54) • Canada 3 May 10

We have all read Romeo and Juliet and appreciated the beautifully tragic story. Now I'll ask, which cinematic portrayal of Romeo and Juliet do you prefer? The older, traditional 1968, Franco Zeffirelli version that depicts the...

Who thinks Ginny Weasley and Draco Malfoy would make a great couple?

lady Di @lady1993 (27221) • Philippines 29 Mar 10

I do, I do... I just got the idea when I read some of the fan fictions about this pair- and it's so awesome. Ginny and Draco would make a great couple; they are like Romeo and Juliet- coming from two families who are at odds and...

What did everyone think of "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead"?

init_towinit @init_towinit (53) • United States 2 Oct 08

This is on a side note since I mentioned Hamlet earlier. I thought it was entertaining. You can't compare contemporary plays with Shakespeare plays even if the contemporary play is based on Shakespeare! Both main characters got a...
