The Shakespeare Diaries: Titus Andronicus

I read all 38 Shakespeare plays and making notes on each. The challenge is not so much "Will I get through them all?" (He wrote a lot of crap), but "Will I know how he did it?" It will take about two years or more, as I am the only reading three to five pages per day (1310 pages in total), and I will probably have notes on a new game once or twice a month. I am American but I lived in Germany for over 20 years - about half of my life. My mother tongue in English but I speak German most of the day. I even dreamed in German. So guess what I write? Germany from the perspective of a foreigner.America from a distance. Live the life of expatriates. What this means to carry two souls in the womb - an American, a German. My books have been published so far only in German: "Die Nibelungenreise" about my trip a year across Germany in search of nine heroes of the Middle Ages, and "Planet Germany," a look satire on the strange strange place, I have come to love. I'll tell you one thing about living the life of expatriates, however: It is certain that you look at things differently. Maybe he was not exactly Shakespeare again. Maybe it was still fumbling, looking the way he wanted to write.Maybe someone said, "Will, you must be a shocker every five minutes. To keep those people watching" Or ". Will you hold back, you're not going all the way . You're too shy. Go to the limit and go a bit beyond. Do not worry if it makes sense not to wait for an opportunity in the history of logic, just slap it on another rape, another murder, more blood to send another severed hand fly through the air: Go to the top."Throughout the game Titus complains that everyone is unfair to him and his beloved family, but at the very beginning, he butchers his own son completely out of the blue (not quite, actually: Titus demonstration in a big way flashy loyalty to the emperor in Rome and his sense of honor after his insults son of the emperor). Then, after getting his revenge on the people who raped and mutilated his daughter, butchers it, too. That's all the time. surreal, as the dream of a serial killer drug of ancient Rome.The Romans did admire and fear of the barbarians as we see today, and fear of things that can ultimately destroy us.
