He used the popular forms of the time to achieve his desired effects. For example, Romeo and Juliet contains many examples of puns. This is where similar sounding words have the same meaning, something which Elizabethan audiences enjoyed. The sonnet was also very popular at the time, and the play has examples of this form. This title discusses the style of Shakespeare's play, and examines some of the devices he uses to develop character and hold the interest of his audience.
Reviews
For a student wanting the best GCSE result in Romeo and Juliet this title, at 21 minutes, is a must. When I first listened to it I thought that it would be a bit too heavy but this isn't the case at all. My son was given an iPod for Christmas and I couldn't believe how easy he found it to load the 5 titles in this topic onto it. This product is almost too good to be true but I can vouch for the fact that it really is that good and the whole topic price of 9.95 makes this a bargain.
