This era gave us one of the most influential writers in the world: William Shakespeare. As a theater student, I indulge in Shakespearen plays and so does a wide majority of the world. One of the most popular plays being Romeo and Juliet.

Further, this era reflects on the transformation of the English way of life through a scientific, economic, and technological perspective. ]]> 2020-12-13 23:13:38 UTC https://padlet.com/nandananair59/vdy5lpl0uh7gs67b/wish/1014326703 nandananair59 https://padlet.com/nandananair59/vdy5lpl0uh7gs67b/wish/1014345474 I am fascinated by the Modern Period of literature since it was riddled with dillusionment and skepticism yet, had stellar pieces of poetry and literary work promoting ideas such as Feminisim and the questioning the authority of the state-church relationship.  My favorite piece of work from this era, is the excerpt from The Bell Jar by Slyvia Plath that I stumbled upon when doing assignments. ]]> 2020-12-13 23:32:53 UTC https://padlet.com/nandananair59/vdy5lpl0uh7gs67b/wish/1014345474
