Is there any published video of full Shakespeare productions in the original pronunciation? I'm curious how appealing it is over the course of a couple of hours. Also wonder about critical and popular reception of those performances.
- aezell 8y agoI would suspect that like any production, it takes a bit for the audience's ears to adjust and then it likely goes largely unnoticed. As for critical reception, Crystal uses some of this linguistic approach to make very specific creative choices. I would imagine audiences and critics respond more to those choices than they do the linguistic reasons that led to them.
