August. 21st. Corpus Christi. Cambridge.

"Tell me what your impression on Shakespeare is. Use a few words to describe him. "

上午没有进入状态，有点昏昏沉沉的，大致讲了一下莎翁个人的事情和Global Theatre。下午是麦克白。麦克白讲得真好。

偷偷拍了老师。笔挺的西装，很认真。每讲一段会放一段视频。他有好多不同的版本。大概都看过很多很多遍了。

“明天，明天，再一个明天。

一天接着一天地蹑步前进。直到最后一秒钟的时间。”

Imagine a book of the recorded time. Page by page, you come to the last syllable of it. Said the professer.

“我们所有的昨天，不过是照亮愚人归于尘土之路。”

“不过是一个行走的影子，一个在舞台上指手画脚打拙劣的伶人，登场片刻，就在无声无息中悄然退下。”

“它是一个愚蠢人所讲的故事，充满喧哗和躁动，却找不到一点意义。”

谋杀国王后的麦克白夫人不堪承受愧疚而自杀。当观众看到这部分时，会收到一个很明显的讯息：Don't kill your King. Or if you do, you will suffer. 但是同时，他也在问：Is there should anything we should do something to powerful people who are dangerous？

莎士比亚真的是一个很聪明的人。他展现了两层内容：第一层是对皇室的奉承——要敬畏国王，否则是不会有好下场的；第二层，他在启发人们去思考如何控制权力，这种权力当然也包括王权。触怒权贵的东西巧妙地包裹在甜言蜜语之下，像老师所说“safely under the radder”。

“But Shakespeare used a rather clever way to get away from the radder of the nobles and you can see neither him nor his actors were put in prison for warning people about the abuse of power. ”

“It's important to make it not too Scotish. It's better to consider it as an international play where it could be anywhere where there is a dangerous tyrant who will kill People in charge. ”

“It could be a play of any structure of power. ”

“In a way it brings a demacratical question about why the people in power should be in there.”

“It is saying that we need legal and political method of dealing with people like this rather than only have plays.”

“What do we do to powerful people who are dangerous and a threat to the society? ” 结尾这一段升华简直帅爆了。

麦克白

[英] 莎士比亚 / 2001 / 中国国际广播出版社

这段时间恰好赶上Shakespeare Festival.剧组在整个剑桥镇演出。刚到的时候还有点摸不清头脑，麦克白就这么耽误了。但是所幸赶着末班车，看了《第十二夜》。

August 22rd. King's College Garden.

7:30-10:30. The most unforgettable time of my life.

观众被分成扇形，席地而坐。不少人携妻带子而来，拿一些红酒和小甜饼。

正好坐在扇形的边上，是一件很幸运的事情。演员退场和上场的时候会从身边带着风跑过，有时候对白响起在头顶上，亮如洪钟，现场感很强。

记得入场时售票老大爷零钱用完了，他对人群说，“I've run out of money now. Only those who have the exact amount of money could enjoy our show!” 有一点可爱的小得意。这里的人们真的很热爱艺术。喜欢这种生活态度。
