1) 154 sonnets, two long poem
• • • • • • • • • • • • • •
As an unperfect actor on the stage, Who with his fear is put beside his part, Or some fierce thing replete with too much rage, Whose strength's abundance weakens his own heart; So I for fear of trust, forget to say, The perfect ceremony of love's rite, And in mine own love's strength seem to decay, O'ercharged with burthen of mine own love's might: O let my looks be then the eloquence, And dumb presagers of my speaking breast, Who plead for love, and look for recompense, More than that tongue that more hath more expressed. O learn to read what silent love hath writ, To hear with eyes belongs to love's fine wit.
1.Shakespeare's literary position
In western literary history, only very individual writers have qualified say: without him, the literature will become another way. Shakespeare is one of the most qualified. 在西方文学史上,只有很个别的作家有资格这样 说:如果没有他, 整个文学将变成另外一个样子。 莎士比亚无疑是其中最有资格的一个。

仿佛舞台上初次演出的戏子 慌乱中竟忘记了自己的角色, 又像被触犯的野兽满腔怒气, 它那过猛的力量反使它胆怯; 同样,缺乏着冷静,我不觉忘 掉 举行爱情的仪节的彬彬盛典, 被我爱情的过度重量所压倒, 在我自己的热爱中一息奄奄。 哦,请让我的诗篇做我的辩士, 替我把缠绵的衷曲默默诉说, 它为爱情申诉,并希求着赏赐, 多于那对你絮絮不休的狡舌: 请学会去读缄默的爱的情 书, 用眼睛来听原属于爱的妙 术。

《Macbeth》
• After reading this drama,I learned a lot. And here are the point which I would talk about. It’s the ambition that counts. According to this drama,I knew that sometimes ambition is not always good.. And if you have a proper ambition, such as becoming a champion in a competition or being successful on something. Whatever it is, it should be appropriate. • Also, you should not achieve it through extreme means but try your best to catch it instead. • In the end,I think this drama is worthy of reading. Maybe you can try it.
Shakespeare is thand poet, is one of the world's four other writers.
Ben jonson said Shakespeare is time spirit , and do not belong to the century and belongs to all.

Romeo and Juliet
罗密欧与朱丽叶
To be, or not to be, this is a question. 生存,还是毁灭,这是一个问题。 Light heart lives long . 豁达者长寿。 Do not , for one repulse , give up the purpose that you resolved to effect . 不要只因一次失败,就放弃你原来决心想达到的目的。 The time of life is short ; to spend that shortness basely, it would be too long . 人生苦短,若虚度年华,则短暂的人生就太长了。 There is a history in all men's lives. 所有人的生活都有一部历史. It is not enough to help the feeble up, but to support him after. 仅仅把弱者扶起来是不够的,还要在他站起来之后支持他。 Truth needs no colour; beautiful need no pencil. 真理不需色彩,美丽不需涂饰。
Reaction to two of his books
• 《Hamlet》
• 《Macbeth》
《Hamlet》
• • Fate is attached to each one, as the shadow follows the form.It can not only be gentle like the sunshine,but can also be horrible like the Evil. The main character Hamlet is always thinking.To revenge or to forgive,no matter what kind of choice,will everything return to before?To be or not to be,that is the question. Life is a pain, but death makes him scared.Is it only death let him fear?Of course not.What scares him most is to drag out an ignoble existence with humiliation and helpless,or to burden with treason,or to buried with his lowly shameless uncle.Which one to choose,which should choose.That may be more difficult to answer than live or die. Life is a game of choice. Then, the choice of the final answer? The beloved woman committed suicide. Revenge failed, and killed by his dead lover’s brother.Hamlet is living for revenge, but died from others’ revenge to him, and isn't it a kind of sorrow?A lot of people fight against the fate, finally can not escape the cruel life,nothing can be changed.This kind of helpless exists in all the people, perhaps this is the greatest unhappiness of human.Only when the sun of death shining on their cold body,that moment can be the real ideal and free.
