Histories

[close] Are you a history fanatic? Or do you loathe it terribly and need encouragement to read through this genre? I am reading chronologically through Susan Wise Bauer's The Well-Educated Mind HISTORIES, beginning January 2017. Join me here. See bookshelf to view the books in this reading challenge.

[close] We will be reading and discussing Shakespeare's plays. We will also read and discuss non-fiction books relating to Shakespeare and fiction books that have Shakespeare as a character. We will be reading two books at a time with new books picked by me every two months. Eventually, if the group gets bigger, books will be picked by vote within the group. We may, in the future, have Google Hangouts for each month's books. I will be looking for co-moderators for this group. For each book I'll try to find some interesting discussion questions. Feel free to add your own. Please use a new topic for each question.

[close] A room for lovers of theatre, theater books, texts on acting, directing, theory and scripts.

[close] Here we will read plays together. Each month, we will read a Shakespearean play and one play by another playwright. We will share reviews of our favorite, and not so favorite plays.
