My research proposal will focus on the life and works of William Shakespeare. I have always been fascinated by the enduring legacy of Shakespeare's plays and how they continue to resonate with audiences centuries after they were written. I am interested in exploring the impact of Shakespeare's work on literature, theater, and culture.
In my research paper, I plan to address questions such as:
1. What influenced Shakespeare's writing style and themes?
2. How did Shakespeare's plays reflect the societal and political climate of his time?
3. What is the significance of Shakespeare's works in contemporary society?
In addition to these main research questions, I have identified potential additional topics that relate to Shakespeare, such as his influence on modern culture, adaptations of his plays, and controversies surrounding his authorship.
To gather information for my research paper, I plan to use a variety of sources including academic journals, biographies of Shakespeare, critical essays, and primary sources such as his plays and sonnets. I also hope to explore online resources and databases to deepen my understanding of Shakespeare's life and works.
