Monologue Character Analysis

Character Analysis Form
Shakespearian Monologue


Find information on your play, and then answer the questions.  Be as specific as you can about these answers, go in depth.  

Read through the play, and to help you out…here are some websites to help you get started.
http://absoluteshakespeare.com   http://www.cliffsnotes.com/WileyCDA/   http://www.sparknotes.com 
When all else fails, just go to www.google.com and type in ‘summary twelfth night’ (or ‘summary’ then whatever the name of your play happens to be).  Look around.  

*Note*  Do not just cut and paste.  Read and understand what you are typing.  You need to know all of these answers without looking at the paper.  These are resources to get you started.  

Character Analysis (you can just answer these questions directly, or if you prefer, type your character’s story in paragraph form, making sure to address the questions).

a.   Character Name:

b.   Gender and Age:

c.   Play Name:

d.   Who is your character talking to?

e.   What does your character want?  (What is this monologue about, your motivation?)

f.    What is standing in the way?  (What is the obstacle?)

g.    What is the urgency of this?  Why is this important to your character?


Monologue Translation

            Type your monologue (or cut and paste) into a document, and go through and translate into modern day English.  If there are words you do not know, look them up.  Translations do not have to be exactly word for word, but as close as modern language will allow.
           
            You may find a translation of your monologue, you may not.  This translation needs to be your own words, your own understanding (even if you find a translation, you still need one in your own words).  If you don’t understand the line, use the context, find summaries of that scene in the play, look up any unfamiliar words, etc.  Use all resources available to you.
