Making an Inference about Shakespeare
What does this passage reveal about William
Shakespeare the playwright?
In five terse lines Shakespeare establishes that it is
nighttime and cold ("unfold yourself" means "draw
back your cloak"), that the speakers are soldiers on
guard, and that there is tension in the air. With just
fifteen words - eleven of them monosyllables - he
has the audience's full, rapt attention.
Shakespeare: The World as Stage,
Bill Bryson
Shakespeare's plays are captivating, even though
he uses so many words.
Shakespeare does not use enough words to create
the setting and fully engage the audience.
Shakespeare masterfully sets the scene with
words; he does not need scenery or effects.
Shakespeare's plays suffer from the lack of scenery
on the stage.
