That's what he said...

Hey there my Shakespearean Lovers馃憢!

I decided to launch this blog with some expressions you need to know Shakespeare created and we still use in the English language. Some of them shocked me that were created by him, which quotes surprised you the most? Tell me in the comments down below 馃憞 

“Break the ice” - from The Taming of the Shrew.
“For goodness’ sake” - from Henry VIII.
Neither a borrower nor a lender be - from Hamlet.
“Love is blind” - from The Merchant of Venice.
“Devil incarnate” - from Titus Andronicus and Henry V.
“Crack of doom” - from Macbeth
“Faint hearted” - from Henry VI Part 1 

Hope you learnt something new today.
Yours Truly, 
The senior student 馃挄.

Hello & Welcome!

Hey there my Shakespearean Lovers 馃憢!

I'm a senior student that appreciates Shakespeare and his works. This is the first post on my blog and I just wanted to create it to explain everything you'll find in it. 
I want to keep my posts breve and clear so that you get useful information about Shakespeare without getting bored. 
And if you're wondering what will I post, the answer is quite wide... I'll try to post about different topics, but keeping it related to the writer. You'll find quotes, facts, information about him and his plays, some analysis I have made myself, etc.

So there you have it! If you think you'll find interesting anything I will post, remember to subscribe introducing your mail in the box on the right. That way, a notification will be sent to your mail every time a new post is created. 

Yours Truly, 
The senior student 馃挄.
