Shakespeare on Toast | Ben Crystal | Pt 7: Question 2 | Speaking the bright & beautiful English of Shakespeare @shakespeareontoast | Uploaded September 2018 | Updated October 2024, 49 minutes ago.
This clip features part of the Q&A session at the end of the lecture.

The British Council and the English-Speaking Union welcomed Ben Crystal as part of the English Language Council lecture series. This 2014 lecture marked the 450th anniversary of the birth of William Shakespeare.

The guardian of English poetry, the inventor of over 1,000 words still in use today, and one of the greatest players with our language, Shakespeare has given us a treasure trove of English to read - funny how so much of it doesn't make sense until it's spoken out-loud.

Actor and author Ben Crystal explores the accent, the theatrical conventions, and the world of Shakespeare, to reveal a bright and beautiful English. With Jennifer Jackson & Aslam Husain.
