Shakespeare Questions

Heya guys! Thanks those of you who responded to the Greek questions. Take a look at these over the course of the Shakespeare unit:

1. On the surface, Shakespeare's dialogue is very different from how we speak today. What similarities do you find however, and why do you think these plays are still done?

2. Shakespeare is revered in part because he was a master of the comedic and the dramatic, the vulgar and the poetic, the great and the small. Which do you think the more "important" sort of performance, comedy or drama? What do both have to offer our society?
