Assignments Identify an archetypal character, concept, theme, or symbol that you have found in the Shakespeare play you are studying, or in the film adaptation you viewed. Write a one-to two-page essay in which you explain the archetype's appropriateness to the play's plot or subject matter, discuss how the archetype contributes to the play or film, and speculate on its impact on the reader/audience – does it give the play or film an added resonance? If so, how?
