Shakespeare Comedies and Tragedies. Know the conventions
It is really worthwhile to understand and recognise the conventions that Shakespeare follows when writing his comedies and tragedies. In terms of answering questions in exams, this understanding will inform your A04 Literary contexts and also AO2 awareness of Form. So it really pays to be aware of the conventions of each form, Comedy and Tragedy. I have made a video tutorial on each (below). The
videos cover:Language (verse v prose), Characterisation, Structure, Plots,Contexts, Interpretations.
