Synopsis
Voice teacher, actor and director, Kristin Linklater, goes beyond the vocal techniques explored in her text "Freeing the Natural Voice", to apply her learning and experience to a guide to speaking the words of William Shakespeare. This book breaks through barriers of restraint and incomprehension when faced with Shakespeare's text to achieve a freer, more visceral relationship to language. Included is an analysis of Shakespeare's use of language to create character, story and meaning through figures of speech, iambic pentameter, rhyme, verse and prose.
