Podcast 82: As You Like It: Bawdy and One More Video, but Not a Bawdy Video




The Bill / Shakespeare Project show

Summary: This week's podcast includes a continuation of our two month-long discussion of As You Like It, with a dive into that pool we call bawdy… so if you’re easily offended, skip to the 12:35 mark in the podcast for one last video review. [EXPLICIT CONTENT AHEAD... SKIP IF EASILY OFFENDED] The following podcast contains adult subject matter, childish humor, and inappropriate language. OK, let’s start off by saying that despite Eric Partridge calling As You Like It a “comparative(ly) innocuous” in his book Shakespeare’s Bawdy (Partridge, Eric. New York: Routledge Classics, 2001; page 58), the play is not completely clean… as we shall see… so stop now before you run the risk of blushing... Additional References Partridge, Eric. Shakespeare's Bawdy. New York: Routledge Classics, 2001. Kiernan, Pauline. Filthy Shakespeare. New York: Gotham, 2008.   Podcast Credits This podcast was recorded using a Blue Snowball microphone onto an ASUS laptop, using Audacity recording software.
