1.Вступительное слово учителя. Постановка задачи.

Good morning dear boys and girls. Good morning dear guests. Today we are going to have an unusual lesson: we are going to speak about a great poet and playwright William Shakespeare.

I hope you will help me to do it. The aim of our today’s lesson is to learn more about this great man and we shall begin with the words you see on the screen

“All world’s a stage,

and all the men and women merely players:

they have their exits and entrances;

and one man in his time plays many parts…”

                                                                          (As You Like It Act II, Scene 7)

He really thought so, but why ? We shall try to find the answer to this question today.

2.Активизация речи учащихся с опорой на имеющийся в их распоряжении материал.

T: Look at this portrait of the writer. What can you tell us about him?

P1:  William Shakespeare is the world’s greatest poet and dramatist. Every Englishman knows more or less the works of his country’s greatest poet. Words and phrases from Shakespeare’s writings have become part of the English language and are used by all.

                                                                        1

P2: Shakespeare made fuller use of the English language than any other writer. There is no better way for a foreigner or an Englishman to understand the richness of the English language than by studying how Shakespeare used it.

7. Учащиеся суммируют полученную информацию о Шекспире в самостоятельных высказываниях по его биографии.

Let us summarize the information about the biography of this great man. How much do we know about the life of this great man?

P1: Although the name of William Shakespeare is well-known in the world, we know very

 little about his life. He was born on April 23rd, 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. His mother,

Marry Arden, was a daughter of a farmer. His father John Shakespeare was a glove-maker

who had an office in Stratford-upon-Avon.

P2: Little is known about William’s childhood. He got his education at the Grammar school.

He got married in 1582 to Anne Hathaway and had three children, Susannah, the eldest,

then twins- a son Hamnet, and another girl, Judith.

P3: William lived in Stratford until he was twenty-one, when he went to London. We don’t

know exactly why he did it. Some people say that the reason was his love of poetry and theatre.

There is a story that Shakespeare’s first work in London was holding rich men’s horses at the theatre door. But nobody can say whether this story is true.

P4: Later, Shakespeare became an actor and a member of one of the big acting companies.

Soon he began to write plays for his company and in a few years he became a well-known author.

P5: Shakespeare’s work as an actor (although he usually acted only small parts) helped

 him greatly in writing of his plays. He knew the stage and that helped him to write the most wonderful plays ever written.

9.Знакомство учащихся с сонетами Шекспира. (Развитие навыков аудирования и чтения).

T: William Shakespeare was not only a great playwright; he was a great poet too. If you read

the biography of Shakespeare well I think you have learnt something about his sonnets.

Will you share this information with us?

P: Published in 1609, the Sonnets were the last of Shakespeare's non-dramatic works to be printed. Scholars are not certain when each of the 154 sonnets was composed, but evidence suggests that Shakespeare wrote sonnets throughout his career for a private readership.

T: Now let us listen to one of his sonnets .It is sonnet 130.

My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun;

Coral is far more red than her lips’ red;

If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;

If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.

I have seen roses damask’d, red and white,

But no such roses see I in her cheeks;

And in some perfumes is there more delight

Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.

I love to hear her speak, yet will I know

That music hath a far more pleasing sound;

I grant that I never saw a goddess go;

My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground.

And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare

            As any she belied with false compare.

Look at the slide, listen to the sonnet once more, mark the stress and the intonation, and try to read it in the same manner.                        

And now I would like you to listen to the translation of this sonnet. It was made by one

of the most talented translators of the poems in the world by Samuel Marshak.

Recite the translation of the sonnet, please.

                                                                   7

             Ее глаза на звезды не похожи,
            Нельзя уста кораллами назвать;
            Не белоснежна плеч открытых кожа,
            И черной проволокой вьется прядь.              

             С дамасской розой, алой или белой,
            Нельзя сравнить оттенок этих щек,                                                    

             А тело пахнет так, как пахнет село.            
            Не как фиалки нежной лепесток.
           

             Ты не найдешь в ней совершенных линий,
            Особенного света на челе,
            Не знаю я как шествуют богини,
            Но милая ступает по земле.

             И все ж она уступит тем едва ли,
            Кого в сравненьях пышных оболгали.

                                                                    (С Маршак)

T: And now we are going to speak about the last years of Shakespeare’s life

P1: In 1613 Shakespeare stopped writing and went to live in Stratford where he died in 1616. Shakespeare was buried in the chancel of the Holy Trinity Church two days after his death. A monument was built to him in Stratford and in the Poets’ Corner in Westminster Abby.                                                          

T: Shakespeare was buried in the chancel of the Holy Trinity Church two days after his death. Read the epitaph carved into the stone and try to explain what it means.

P2:          Good friend for Jesus sake forbear

             To dig the dust enclosed here

             Blessed be the man that spares these stones,

             And crushed be he who moves my bones.

 P3: The epitaph carved into the stone slab covering his grave includes a curse against moving his bones, which was carefully avoided during restoration of the church in 2008.

T: Thank you very much.

13 Выводы по изученному материалу.

T: Our lesson comes to its end, so let us say a few words about Shakespeare, his work and his influence on theatre and literature.

P1: Shakespeare was a great humanist. He believed in man and wished people of his country

to be wiser and happier.  

Four hundred years later his plays are still acted – not only in England but in the whole world.

P2: Shakespeare's work has made a lasting impression on later theatre and literature.

 In particular, he expanded the dramatic potential of characterization, plot, language,

and genre. Until Romeo and Juliet, for example, romance had not been viewed

as a worthy topic for tragedy.

P3: In Shakespeare's day, English grammar, spelling and pronunciation were less

standardized than they are now, and his use of language helped shape modern English.
