        <description><![CDATA[This play deals largely with the pastoral, which in Shakespeare's time was idealized as perfect, carefree, and an ideal way of life.  However, the pastoral depicted in this play has a darker side.  Not everything is "ideal" in the lives of the characters...for instance, a terrible storm threatens the safe arrival in Bohemia, once there, Antigonus is chased  and eaten by a bear, and there are angry outbursts from characters which indicates...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[This would be a very long, indeed thesis-length, argument to make in full. But I think one of the many, many ways of interpreting this fascinating late Shakespeare play would be to argue that the play charts the thawing of cold, harsh winter into spring and into rebirth. Spring, of course, is the time when new things are born.
Leontes' cold, murderous jealousy gives way - as the play progresses - to forgiveness, and a new lease of life. And,...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[That oddly phrased sentence comes from Act IV, scene 4 of Shakespeare's &quot;The Winter's Tale.&quot; It is only part of a sentence. In context, it reads as follows:He says he loves my daughter:I think so too; for never gaz'd the moonUpon the water as he'll stand, and read,As 'twere, my daughter's eyes: and, to be plain,I think there is not half a kiss to chooseWho loves another best. The shepherd is talking, saying that the young man claims...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[This exchange actually takes place between the Clown and the Old Shepherd in 3.3.102-106:

Old Shepherd:  Heavy matters, heavy matters.  But look thee here, boy.  Now bless thyself.  Thou mests with things dying.  I with things new-born. Here's a sight for thee.  Look thee, a bearing cloth for a squire's child.]]></description>
