In a breezy and often funny manner, the Standard Deviants cast gives historical context to the plays and thumbnail sketches of the characters, and lays out the groundwork of the plots. Comic effects include tallying up the gore (Titus Andronicus: five stabbings, three chopped-off hands...) and clips of a haughty professor--the kind one would expect on such a tape--making pointlessly esoteric comments. In addition to looking at Shakespeare's influences as he wrote these plays (Seneca, Ovid, and such), the 90-minute video lesson evaluates them, giving students a head start in class. Shakespearean actors in costume perform key scenes, and frequent use of charts helps students keep track of the various points made. This academic series is designed by a combination of educators and writers to present complicated material in a simple and engaging format--and it works. --Kimberly Heinrichs\n\nProduct Description\n\nThis program examines three of Shakespeare's tragedies: his first, his most beloved, and his most famous. The Standard Deviants explore Titus Andronicus, Shakespeare's first tragedy-a flawed, but promising play-to highlight what makes a great tragedy, and to reveal that even Shakespeare had to learn his craft. Additionally, the program provides insight into understanding the poetry, characters, and plot of Romeo and Juliet, the timeless tale of those two \"star-cross'd lovers.\" Finally, the program provides easy-to-understand approaches to Shakespeare's best-known and perhaps most complex work, Hamlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 631865015931\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0631865015931\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e 2568064\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e dvd\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IDshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46239464751363,"sku":"TB-ZF3I-H76Y","price":40.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/files\/61mo-a-w8TL.jpg?v=1734724808","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/products\/standard-deviants-chemistry-program-1-basics-import","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
