A Midsummer Night's Dream is one of Shakespeare's most popular romantic comedies. At the same time, it's a play that explores the darker and more dangerous side of love. Four young lovers flee into the forest where their romantic entanglements become even more entangled thanks to the magic of the fairy king, Oberon — who also puts a spell on his wife, Titania, so she falls in love with Bottom, a man with an enchanted donkey's head. In this course, you'll learn the story of A Midsummer Night's Dream, discover how the play's fantastical elements actually represent universal issues in our everyday lives, and hear the play's key speeches performed and analyzed by world-class Shakespearean actors and literary scholars. In Part 1, you'll be guided through a detailed account of the story with commentary by Tiffany Stern, Professor of Shakespeare and Early Modern Drama at the Shakespeare Institute. Professor Stern discusses the play's context, structure, and distinctive mix of comedy and tragedy, as created by the “play-within-a-play” — the “tragic” story of Pyramus and Thisbe performed by one group of characters to celebrate the others' weddings.

There may not have been indoor plumbing in Shakespeare's lifetime, but going to the bathroom still involved cleaning up. One aspect you may be surprised to learn you share with William Shakespeare is that he, too, used various kinds of paper to go to the restroom. Shakespeare's plays provide references to the jacques, jordan, and chamber pot, all options for using the restroom in Tudor England, and it turns out, we can also find references to what Shakespeare may have used in those restrooms for handling the necessary business in the lavatory, as well. Our guest this week, Tiffany Stern, is here to share with us her research into the alternatives to paper that were often used as toilet tissue for early modern London.

Inside Tiffany Stern’s book titled “Shakespeare in Parts”  which she co-authored with Simon Palfrey, there is a picture of a piece of paper captioned “The part of Orlando from Robert Greene’s Orlando Furioso” from the 1590s. The image represents the historical reality that for Shakespeare, plays were always distributed in parts--meaning a single actor would have had a copy of what his character was supposed to say, but when he was on stage to perform those lines, he would be hearing the words of his fellow characters often for the first time, generating, as you might expect, some pretty dramatic responses from the players themselves. This image of the lines for Robert Greene’s Orlando is additionally fascinating because not only is it hand written in ink on paper (instead of printed with type pressed letters the way we find plays inside the First Folio, for example) but aside from some lines across the page periodically to indicate a separation between spoken lines, there isn’t anything else on the page at all. It surprises me, quite honestly, because visually, this 16th century script looks totally different from modern play scripts. So why is the script written in a single part instead of having everyone’s lines all together? Is this the way players acted in the theater--everyone in their own part instead of bringing it all together as a group? Here to help us answer these questions and explore the research from her book, Shakespeare in Parts, about the history of scripts, performance, and the assumptions we make about what really happened when Shakespeare’s actors performed 16th century plays, is our guest Tiffany Stern.

When we think about William Shakespeare, we almost synonymously think of him holding a quill pen, or furiously scratching away on a piece of parchment with ink on his hands creating a masterpiece. When it comes to the history of writing, pens in particular, and even references to writing that happens inside Shakespeare’s plays, the world of writing instruments in Shakespeare’s lifetime was really widely varied. Not only were there other options beyond the infamous quill pen, but it’s highly likely many of Shakespeare's plays were actually taken down using a precursor to the same No. 2 pencils many of us create our artwork with today. Here to help us explore the history of writing instruments in England, including table books, graphite pencils, and a delightful look at Elizabethan erasers, is professor of Shakespeare and early modern drama, Tiffany Stern.
