Have someone read you Shakespeare!

I was reading some of the sonnets to myself, and I thought it might be helpful to have someone read them to me as well. Check out the links below. Its really interesting to hear them in the voice, and I was able to get a better grasp on them as well!


Sonnet 55- James Earl Jones!
Sonnet 106
Sonnet138

    Thanks for sharing! That's definitely a helpful tool that I never thought of using before. It also really helps to get the rythm of the sonnet which can help in analyzing. Very cool.

    I'm glad you enjoyed it. I thought it was interesting, especially for the Sonnet James Earl Jones read (Sonnet 55) how his rhythm was completely different from mine. Even a slight change in rhythm can make a sonnet sound very different.
