happy birthday!



above my paper topics my teacher wrote an interesting note:
congratulations! you have just completed a close and rigorous study of 12,500 lines from the pen of william shakespeare. (this statistic comes from the harvard concordance to shakespeare, which also informs us that our four plays are made up of roughly 97,000 words in 3,000 different speeches. aren’t you glad to know this?) now it is time to look back and assess some features and patterns of the tetralogy as a whole.
