Shakespeare’s Fools

Congratulations on April Fool's Day! By the way, I want to stop giving it to Shakespeare fools and clowns! The clown is one of Shakespeare's traditional humorous characters, but fools are humorous and satellite difficult characters, including philosophy. They can do it to get it, but they are not fools.

In this video, from Brooks's masterpiece comedy "History of the World, Share of I", he is a writer and director as a writer and director of the "Filosofer Stander" comic. As you can see, unlike clowns, most of Shakespeare's protagonists play this role.

What Is A Fool?

Fool's and clowns, as shown in this video by Terry Jones in Monty Pighton, perform a wide range of duties, in music, dance, poetry, acrobatic, jugglin g-in some case s-starting war. It is based on the knight bard who was a wandering singer who had to do!

Fools Vs. Clowns

Menethtrel is an actor in the Zari era who played an active part in the Royal Palace courtyard. The clown is a humorous role in the play. They often danced, sang, and spontaneous comedy. To explain this difference, let's introduce a short video depicting the life of a lovable fool Henry VIII.

Foolish Founding Fathers

Shakespeare's fools and clowns are all based on ancient Italian materials. From Roman comedy "Plaft" and "Terentia" to natural occurrence comedy known as "Comedy del Arte".

A short documentary about "Comedia del Arte" developed by the London State Theater.

The basics of the comedy are the characteristics of Shakespeare's adaptation and given a perfect thing: Harlekinino every day is a hungry DROUMIO, and it has become Captain o-Falstaf and pistol. His own DNA, including Sheroku, contains the remnants of Brigera. According to Dariocom's own book "Manuale Minimodell'attore", Shakespeare adapted the characters of the comedy into his own clown, and the ridiculous character called Sotz, which described its impact, became his fool. (FO, 107).

Will Kempe- Shakespeare’s First Great Clown

Despite his ability and professionalism as a dancer, Kempe is a meaningless clown role, such as Dogberry, "Henry IV", a "Henry II", and Peter of "Romeo and Juliet". I was good at it. In the second edition of "Romeo and Juliet", "Willa Campa" appears firmly before Peter speaks in the stage explanation:

According to Stephen Greenblatt's A Will in the World, Kempe and Shakespeare had a falling out in the late 1990s, which many scholars believe was due to Shakespeare's dislike of jesters wasting time on jokes that littered the play:

Hamlet: Do not let your jesters talk more than they need to, for they will begin to grin themselves, in order to make a certain number of the barren audience laugh. But in the meantime, think of the important issues of the play. This is spiteful, and speaks of the petty ambition of the fools who taunt him. Hamlet, Act III, Scene II. Kempe, for his part, seemed to wear his trousers a little too big. He and his fellow jesters alike considered Shakespeare's text merely a vehicle for personal jokes and songs (Reynolds, 247). After this he sold his share of the Chamberlain's Men and referred to them in print as "My Noble Shakespeare!"

1600-1613: The Golden Age Of Foolery

Kempe's successor was Robert Armin, a brilliant writer and artist who excelled in satirical fool roles. Armin appeared in several of Shakespeare's plays from 1599 onwards.

Unlike Kempe, Armin's characters are connected to the plot of the play and his jokes support the themes and ideas of the play itself. In his role as Feste in Twelfth Night, mocking Orsino and Countess Olivia for their over-seriousness, Armin jokes:

Party, Madonna, why are you sad? Olivia, you good-natured fool, for your brother is dead. Party, I think his soul is in hell, Madonna. Olivia, I think his soul is in heaven, fool. Party, Madonna, it is even more foolish to lament your brother's soul being in heaven. Take the fool away, citizens. Twelfth Night, Act I, Scene 5 Try the granite on the As You Like It sign.

In As You Like It, the fool Touchstone denounces the culture of dueling, implying that there are hundreds of loopholes by which gentlemen can challenge a duel without actually fighting.

• Note stones. I didn't like the court's beard hairstyle. He said he would think so that the beard was bad. This is called a recoil. He again said that she had a bad way to prepare her beard, and she was pleased with her beard. This is called "humbly and curse." He once again said that he had a bad way to cut it, he would take the opportunity to judge. This is called "recoil". In this case, he will answer that I lied. This is a brave termination. If the weather is bad and the cut is bad, he will say I'm lying. This is called a refute. And indirect lies and direct lies.
• Jack (Lord). How many times did you say that his beard was bad?
• Keystone I couldn't exceed the "accusation" and he couldn't make a "legitimate lie." So we measured the sword and broke up.

The Fool in “King Lear”

Perhaps the biggest comic created by Armin is the fool in the King of Lilla. The best carrier who ridicules the king's stupid decision. He tries to dismiss the upset king until he has disappeared, and the rear himself does not start to make the audience widely stupid:

Have you ever seen a peasant dog barking on a beggar? Count Glostar. yes. Did the rear and its creatures escape from him? So you saw a great picture of power: they follow the dogs they serve. The rich will hang the accounting clerk. The trivial vicious looks and hides from the torn clothes. If the sin is filled with gold, the powerful spear of justice can easily break. No one makes you offend, everyone! Raise the glass of glass and see something invisible like a tearful politician. King Lear, Act 4, 6th place.

The rear, who realizes his foolishness, regains his heart and puts his daughter. This perfectly shows the importance of fools, clowns, and carriers. Ask yourself, sharpen critical thinking, and survive difficulties with humor. Therefore, on this day in April, I declare a fool.

"For stupid, stupid, for farce. Press the rich against Alcin!
