Measure for Measure | William Shakespeare

so-so

The ending certainly brings justice, but does it really? It corrects a few injustices, but I feel like it just continues the tyranny that created this whole situation to begin with. The ending just wasn‘t enough to redeem this play for me. There were some great, strong, female characters who really carried the play and made it worth continuing and finishing. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

GingerAntics Shakespeare is clearly commenting on Puritan ruled society here, but that doesn‘t really make this play any easier to stomach, especially with current events. #Shakespeare #MeasureForMeasure #shakespearereadalong 3y

Graywacke Shakespearean pickup line? 3y

GingerAntics @Graywacke god I hope not. There is a lot of sexism in this one. I want to punch a few of the guys in this play. Never mind the whole, execution for impregnating someone your brother is not married to, but I‘ll release him if I can sex with you. 🤯 This play feels kind of like that last one. I completely hate almost every male character. 3y

Graywacke @GingerAntics It will have more elements like AWtEW. And, yeah, agree about the men. Full out failure of not being terrible. 3y

GingerAntics @Graywacke I guess we don‘t know about Claudio, he‘s just sitting around waiting to die, but the duke and pretty much all the rest of the men, eh. Maybe more of the men will die by the end of this one. That‘s a better ending to me. 3y

TheBookHippie Bloody hell!!!! 3y

TheBookHippie @GingerAntics yes let‘s get back to everyone dying 😂 3y
