(Звучит сонет 130, в оригинале, на русском языке)
Т: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 damasked, 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 well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound;
I grant 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.
Её глаза на звёзды не похожи,
Нельзя уста кораллами назвать,
Не белоснежна плеч открытых кожа,
И чёрной проволокой вьется прядь.
Р:С дамасской розой, алой или белой,
Нельзя сравнить оттенок этих щек.
А тело пахнет так, как пахнет тело,
Не как фиалки нежный лепесток.
Ты не найдешь в ней совершенных линий,
Особенного света на челе.
Не знаю я, как шествуют богини,
Но милая ступает по земле.
И всё ж она уступит тем едва ли,
Кого в сравненьях пышных оболгали.
Teacher: Good afternoon everybody. Our party is dedicated to the greatest playwright in world literature William Shakespeare. I hope all of you will take an active part in it. Listen to some facts of W. Shakespeare`s biography and the time when he lived and worked.
Pupil 1: The name of William Shakespeare is known all over the world. The last half of the 16th and the beginning of the 17th centuries are known as the Golden Age of English literature. It was the time of the English Renaissance and sometimes it is called “The Age of Shakespeare” (Слайд: “експира”).
Pupil 2: People often call Shakespeare “Our National Bard”, “The Immortal Poet of Nature” or “The Great Unknown”. We really know few facts of his life and many of them are doubtful, but some facts are well known and proved by documents.
Pupil 3: The first fact of Shakespeare’s biography is that he was born on Арril 23, 1564 in Stratford - upon - Avon. His father, John Shakespeare, was a glover and a dealer in corn, meat, wool and leather, and other farm products. William’s mother Mary Arden, was the daughter of a rich farmer in the village of Wilcote (Слайд: “Дом, в котором родился и жил У. Шекспир”).
Pupil 4: In his childhood William went to the Stratford Grammar School, where besides reading and writing he was taught Latin and Greek. At that time there were no theatres in England. Groups of actors traveled from town to town and played in different places, usually out-of-doors. Sometimes actors came to Stratford. Young William went to see all their shows and liked them very much. He wanted to become an actor. Sometimes he wrote little plays himself and staged them his friends.
Pupil 5: We also know that being 18 years old William married Anne Hathaway, who was 9 years older than himself. They had a daughter Susanna. Their first child was born in 1583. And then twins - a son Hamnet and a daughter Judith followed in 1585. It is presumed that later that year Shakespeare left for London. He joined a group of actors there. Now Shakespeare was a young man of twenty-one.
Pupil 6: In 1594 Shakespeare became closely allied to the company of the Lord Chamberlain`s Servants, which first occupied a playhouse called " The Theater " and then built the famous Globe Theatre and held their performances there. Shakespeare became the principal playwright to the company. He was also an actor, but obviously not a first - rate one because he usually acted only small parts. But Shakespeare’s experience as an actor helped him greatly in the writing of his plays, His knowledge of the stage, and his poetical genius made his plays the most remarkable ever written. (Слайд “Театр Глобус”).
Pupil 7: It is known that only in 1611, at the height of his fame, Shakespeare returned to Stratford. Four years ago (1597) he bought the largest house there, called “New Place”. On the 23rd of April 1616, he died exactly fifty-two years after the supposed day of his birth. He was buried in a fine old church in Stratford. A monument was erected to the memory of the great playwright in Westminster Abbey, (Слайд: “Церковь Святой Троицы”).

Teacher:His plays were translated in many languages. Our famous Russian poets have translated his sonnets. (перевод)
In our school we also have same poets who has translated sonnet 77 in Russian. But first listen to the original poetry.
Sonnet 77: Thy Glass Will Show Thee How Thy Beauties Weare
Thy glass will show thee how thy beauties wear,
Thy dial how thy precious minutes waste;
The vacant leaves thy mind’s imprint will bear,
And of this book, this learning mayst thou taste.
The wrinkles which thy glass will truly show
Of mouthed graves will give thee memory;
Thou by thy dial’s shady stealth mayst know
Time’s thievish progress to eternity.
Look what thy memory cannot contain,
Commit to these waste blanks, and thou shalt find
Those children nursed, deliver’d from thy brain,
To take a new acquaintance of thy mind.
These offices, so oft as thou wilt look,
Shall profit thee and much enrich thy book.
А. Васильчиков
Свой возраст в зеркале увидишь ты,
В часах — минуты, что нельзя вернуть.
Ложится жизнь на чистые листы —
Из этой книги ты постигнешь суть.
Напомнит беспощадное стекло
Морщинами, что пасть могилы ждет;
А время-вор мгновеньем протекло
В тени часов и к вечности ведет.
доверь заветным письменам скорей
Все то, что памяти не удержать —
Когда-нибудь плоды своих идей
Пожнешь и сможешь ты себя познать.
И ты, читая мудрость этих строк,
Весьма богатый извлечешь урок.
Teacher: Have a look at our Othello and Desdemona!

Диалог между Отелло и Дездемоной
D: Who's there? Othello?

O: Have you prayed tonight, Desdemon?
D: Yes, my lord. Alack, my lord, what may you mean by that?
O: Think of your sins.
D: They are loves I bear to you. But what's the mater?
O: That handkerchief which I so loved and gave you, You gave to Casio.
D: No, by my love and sole. Send for the man and ask him.
O: Therefore confess you freely of your sin,
I wouldn't kill you unprepared spirit. I say, amen.
D: I never did offend you in my life; Never loved Casio, I never gave him token.
O: By heaven, I saw my handkerchief in his hand. О perjured woman! You broke my heart.
D: He found it then. I never gave it him. Send for him here. Let him confess a truth.
O: He had confessed. And he is dead.
D: Alas, he is betrayed and I undone.
O: Down, strumpet, being done, there is no pause.
