Synopsis "Homosexuality in the plays by William Shakespeare"

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2017 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Literature, Works, grade: 74, course: B A (Hons) with English, language: English, abstract: This Research paper aims at highlighting various homo sexual instances in four of Shakespeare's Comedies - A Midsummer Night's Dream, As You Like It, The Merchant of Venice and Twelfth Night. When I discuss "levels" of relationships, I refer to one of three levels: the first is the playhouse level, which denotes the Early Modern theatrical world and assumes the use of boy actors. The second level is the true-character level, which signifies the "true plot" that lies under the exterior plot where characters do not yet know that Cesario is actually Viola or that Ganymede is actually Rosalind. The third and final level is the plot level, or what is currently occurring in the story line at that moment without invoking the playhouse level or citing the use of boy actors. I also refer to other works of Shakespeare like his sonnets and his plays (Romeo and Juliet, Henry IV and V, Troilus and Cressida, Othello, Timon of Athens and Tragedy of Coriolanus) and try to determine the disruption of hetero-normative Renaissance England by homo-erotic characters developed by Shakespeare. In this paper, I also shed light on the Playwright's life and the socio-cultural environment of Elizabethan England. The difference between the societies of then and now is highlighted and are accordingly used to interpret the plays.
