Hi! this is Haruna.
Shun did great job on this blog first, so i will follow him and introduce myself.
i am from Mutsu city. you guys must know an actor Kenichi Matsuyama. he is also from Mutsu.
i am a senior and now i prepare for my graduation thesis. i'll write it on Merchant of Venice, Shakespere. i know it must be tough...
i like reading, painting, going to karaoke, and so on. you know, i am not the outdoor person! i want to have a private library someday in the future. i love books as i have such a dream seriously!
what i want to do in this advanced english class is to speak english and train to think in english. i think it will be tough but i should try it!
i hope this introduction will help you know about me. anyway, i am glad to meet you!
by the way, we have to pick up some topics and make some groupes for debates, right?
how shoud we make it??
Have you seen the 2004 film of "The Merchant of Venice" with Al Pacino as Shylock? I have a copy. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0379889/
ReplyDeleteYes I have! I've seen it in my seminor. That movie emphasized Jewish discrimination,I thought.
ReplyDeleteI can't forget a scene that Shylock said,"Hath not a Jew eyes?..." I felt so sorry for him to hear this speech.
So,for me,"The Merchant of Venice" is not a comedy. I want to watch another "The Merchant of Venice" next time.
