Has anyone here studied Shakespeare's Othello? I have a question to put to you, but first I need to know if I'm wasting my time! Cheers.

Oh you are wasting your time here.
Nobody ever replies to your messages.
Well not mine anyway

Hmm. Nobody responded to my "Thing to do with Time. Volume One". OK, so it was a collection of non-sensical ramblings, but I thought someone might have taken a shine to it...:-)

Nah, I don't care if no one replies. No gain, no loss. Just wanted to incite a stimulating debate on the subject of the Bard. Stimulating indeeeeed...

I read Othello, but a very long time ago.

What's your question?

Cheers,

Ah, cheers for replying - I've done some work on it now, so I'm alright - I was just looking for a quick-fix answer, but evidently it's not a widely studied Shakespeare text!

I read a complete compilation of his when I was twelve years old. (I was a strange kid.) And, may be it was because I was so young, but I've gone back over and read a few over again. But, I've just never gotten into Shakespear, like some people do.

I mean, you have to appreciate the guy. He was a fucking genius and practically created Modern English. He added over 5,000 words to the language. But, I've just never gotten much into his writting.

Cheers,
Lost

Oh, thanks for the advice there. Mamma always said, "don't ask for help off people you dont thin ot be intelligent". And I say to you: What the fuck is that supposed to mean?..you obviously don't have a firm grasp on English language and for that reason, and many others, should not be so fucking confrontational. And it's Shakespeare not Shakepseare.

i read it this fall, but it looks liek you dont need help any more
