Contrast Shakespeare's political and philosophical opinions that permeate his works with modern perceptions

My major adviser considered Bill a conservative by relevant standards

Or use Burke in relation to today's arguments

Or if leaning trendy.....discuss the decline of high English in light of ebonics or wi$$er slang or just as portrayed in modern media from Housewives to any other whack reality

Note I'm focusing on English....not you giving a political essay which is save for poli sci

Folks here might not believe it but I did a paper in English 102 of how transcendental the lyrics of Jackson Browne were in 1976....my Sapphic professor gave me an A

Too weird in hindsight no?

Thanks WD. It can be politically related, but I like your ideas regarding English. I wish I had more knowledge...wish I was more of a reader.

Shakespeare sounds interesting, but I just don’t have that knowledge of his works I’m embarrassed to say.

I always liked his music. He went to high school here in north OC. Had a one-armed customer who was one of his roadies.
