In Memory of Elizabeth Taylor, and her Shakespeare Connection

As I'm sure you've all heard by now, the legendary Elizabeth Taylor died this week at 79 years.  One of the very first Shakespeare films I saw and fell in love with was the 1967 version of Taming of the Shrew with Elizabeth Taylor playing Katherine opposite Richard Burton's Petruchio.  It was so well done, and I think they both played their parts so well.

I wanted to embed a short clip from that film, Kate's speech at the end, but embedding of that clip is disabled on YouTube, probably due to rights or something.  So, follow this link to go watch it over on YouTube.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcQudMqwqpQ

I agree. That movie was excellently done. I told you that I would let you know what essay I was talking about for the structuralist view of language. I was speaking of Saussure, and the title is "Course on General Linguistics." I don't know if you still want to use it, but it's very interesting. The introduction in our book gives a good overlook of the structuralist theory in its theory section. Sorry that took me so long to get to you. Have a great day.

I prefer to comb through any references I may have to put down last. That is after all the editing and grammar check is done. i would be appreciating for educational content.
