Star-crossed & Timeless: The Lovers of Shakespeare

This lecture explores the passionate, tragic, and complex lovers in Shakespeare’s works, from the star-crossed Romeo and Juliet to the witty and fiery Beatrice and Benedick. We will examine how Shakespeare portrays love in its many forms—romantic, unrequited, forbidden, and doomed—while considering the societal and personal forces that shape these relationships.
