BBC Shakespeare Animated Tales - The Tempest - Part 1



This is the first part of the BBC animated series of Shakespeare's The Tempest.

This play seems quite different than other Shakespeare plays I've read. From just doing some quick research (google) I found that this play was written in a neoclassical style and is hence more organized. A play within a play is common in many of Shakespeare's works, however The Tempest has more imagery and is more self-aware. I am looking forward to doing some more research with this play to fulfill my depth requirement.
