Media Control

" I have the greatest admiration for your propaganda. Propaganda in the West is carried out by experts who have had the best training in the world -- in the field of advertizing -- and have mastered the techniques with exceptional proficiency ... Yours are subtle and persuasive; ours are crude and obvious ... I think that the fundamental difference between our worlds, with respect to propaganda, is quite simple. You tend to believe yours ... and we tend to disbelieve ours. "

SHAKESPEARE'S LIFE HANDOUT
Submitted by: Amy Ulen to Surfing with the Bard
Date: Friday, January 28, 2000
Updated: Sunday, August 17, 2003

This is a handout I found when I first started teaching (ages ago!). It was in fairly poor shape, so I recreated it on my computer. I've long since lost the original, but I present it here with thanks to its originator!

Welcome to the latest edition of Mr. William Shakespeare and the Internet. Newcomers should read the Introduction for an explanation of the way things are arranged. IThe What's News page describes new links, ideas and features, along with current events and other Shakespearean news.

This site attempts two things:

To be an annotated guide to the scholarly Shakespeare resources available on the Internet. Admittedly, some of the resources are not so scholarly, but that's as may be. Usefulness to students (in the broadest sense) is most often the guiding principle. The truly un-scholarly sites are linked on the "Other" Sites page. With respect to current performances, a very popular feature is a listing of Shakespeare Festivals.

In this activity, you will create your own personal reading of Poe's famous short story The Tell-Tale Heart. People who read this story about an insane, murdering man often have strong reactions. They think about what is going on in his mind. They wonder when or if he will kill. They think of other stories or movies about horrible men. Hundreds of thoughts about characters, the story, and the way Poe tells it fly through their heads. But usually, those thoughts stay in your head.

Bend it like Beckham
Submitted on 13 October, 2009 - 16:46
'Bend it like Beckham' is better known as a film, but Nharinder Dhami's book of the same name follows the film faithfully, even reproducing some of the dialogue. The materials in this kit are based on the pivotal Chapter 7 of the book, and also make reference to the film.

This is a revised and considerably shortened version of the original 2004 kit. The wealth of additional materials from the original kit has not been lost, however, and is contained in a supplementary file.
