This is a 14-slide PowerPoint presentation which includes a video extract from the RSC of the famous soliliquy being performed.
It considers the main themes of the Scene but also includes some questions for students to think about and/or discuss, as well as a more detailed analysis of how a particular question might be approached.
The presentation focuses on Act 3, Scene 1 of Shakespeare’s Hamlet. It begins by setting the scene and introducing the characters, providing context for the themes discussed later. The main themes explored are appearance vs. reality and madness.
Setting the Scene: The scene takes place in the castle of Elsinore, where the characters are gathered to watch a play. The atmosphere is tense due to Hamlet’s erratic behavior.
Introduction of Characters: Key characters include Hamlet, Ophelia, Polonius, and the Players. Each character’s role and significance in the play are discussed.
Appearance vs. Reality: This theme is explored through Hamlet’s soliloquy and the Players’ performance. Hamlet’s soliloquy reveals his distrust of appearances and his desire for truth, while the Players’ performance highlights how appearances can be deceiving.
Madness: The theme of madness is closely linked to appearance vs. reality. The characters’ behavior and dialogue are analyzed to uncover the extent of their mental breakdown.
Conclusion: The presentation concludes by emphasizing the intertwined themes of appearance vs. reality and madness, and their significance in Act 3, Scene 1 of Hamlet.
Discussion Points: The presentation ends with discussion points to engage the audience in further analysis of the themes and characters.
A 14-slide introduction to the play, “Waiting for Godot” which includes an examination of the main themes and characters as well as discussion points or questions at the end.
This presentation includes Speaker’s Notes
This presentation is suitable for A Level students of the play.
The presentation explores the human condition through themes of boredom, isolation, and despair, providing insight into the struggles of human existence. The play also delves into existentialist and absurdist themes, examining the meaninglessness of life, the struggle between free will and determinism, and the nature of the human experience.
Key themes discussed include:
Boredom: The characters experience a lack of stimulation and purpose, leading to restlessness and dissatisfaction.
Isolation: Both physical and emotional isolation are explored, contributing to feelings of loneliness and despair.
Despair: The play reflects the struggles and challenges of the human condition, often leading to hopelessness.
The presentation also highlights the theme of waiting and hope, examining the role of waiting in the play and the moments of hope that emerge despite the overall sense of hopelessness5. The characters’ anticipation of Godot’s arrival and their prolonged waiting lead to introspection and self-discovery.
In conclusion, “Waiting for Godot” is a powerful meditation on the human condition, existentialism, absurdism, and the interplay of waiting and hope but it is not always an easy play to study.
This presentation will make any teacher’s task easier in studying this complex work.
This is a teacher’s and student Handout which covers the entire topic of Involuntary Manslaughter.
It is an ivaluable guide to the subject for any AS or A Level student and is also suitable for someone studying Access to Law or similar courses.
It is 20 pages long with an estimated delivery time of around 4 hours.
This is a summary of the document:
The document provides a detailed overview of involuntary manslaughter, distinguishing between Unlawful Act Manslaughter and Gross Negligence Manslaughter, and examining various legal cases to illustrate the principles involved.
Definition and Distinction: Involuntary manslaughter occurs when the defendant (D) has the actus reus for murder but lacks the necessary mens rea, meaning D did not intend to kill or cause serious harm.
Types of Involuntary Manslaughter: There are two types: Unlawful Act Manslaughter and Gross Negligence Manslaughter.
Unlawful Act Manslaughter: This type involves causing death while carrying out a dangerous criminal act. It must be proven that the act was unlawful, dangerous, caused the death, and that D had the mens rea for the act.
Case Examples for Unlawful Act Manslaughter: Cases such as Lamb, Goodfellow, and Mitchell illustrate the principles of Unlawful Act Manslaughter, showing how the act must be unlawful and dangerous, and how causation is established.
Gross Negligence Manslaughter: This type involves a breach of duty of care that causes death and is deemed ‘gross’ negligence, worthy of criminal punishment. The leading case is Adomako.
Duty of Care and Breach: To establish Gross Negligence Manslaughter, it must be shown that D owed a duty of care to V, breached that duty, and that the breach caused V’s death.
Key Legal Principles: Cases like Donoghue v Stevenson and Caparo v Dickman help determine the duty of care, while cases like Litchfield and Singh illustrate breaches of duty leading to liability.
Gross Negligence Standard: The negligence must be so severe that it goes beyond mere compensation and shows a disregard for life, as seen in Bateman and Edwards.
Scenarios and Questions: The document provides various scenarios and questions to help readers understand the application of these legal principles and determine the appropriate type of manslaughter.
Summary of Legal Cases: A table summarizing the main legal principles of key cases is provided, helping to consolidate understanding of involuntary manslaughter.

This is a 5-page Handout which represents a “model answer” to the question: “How does Shakespeare treat death in ‘Romeo and Juliet?’”
It is designed as a complete lesson and should last around 60-minutes in terms of delivery.
The answer is structured as follows:
William Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet” intricately explores the theme of death, intertwining it with love, fate, conflict, and transformation.
Foreshadowing and Premonitions: Shakespeare uses premonitions and dreams to foreshadow the impending deaths of Romeo and Juliet, heightening the sense of foreboding and dramatic irony.
The Role of Fate and Destiny: Fate and destiny play significant roles, with the characters often attributing their misfortunes to fate, suggesting that their lives are governed by external forces beyond their control.
It is an invaluable resource for any students and teachers of the play.
This is a Handout on the Law of Murder, written by an experienced examiner and used over many years with my students.
It is a short introduction to the topic and is an invaluable aid for AS and A Level students of the subject.
It is 7-pages long and it is estimated that it would take about 60-minutes of teaching time. There are questions and exercises throughout.
The Handout is structured as follows:
Definition and Jurisdiction of Murder: Murder is defined as the unlawful killing of a reasonable person under the Queen’s peace with malice aforethought, and British citizens can be charged with murder committed in any country.
Actus Reus Elements: The actus reus of murder includes four elements: D killed, a reasonable creature in being, under the Queen’s Peace, and the killing was unlawful. The document primarily focuses on the first element.
Importance of Causation: For murder, it is crucial to prove that D’s act or omission caused the death of V, with examples like Gibbins v Proctor illustrating how omissions can fulfill actus reus.
Reasonable Person in Being: The term refers to a human being, with complexities arising in cases involving a foetus or brain-dead individuals.
Unlawful Killing: Killing is unlawful unless it is in self-defence, defence of another, or prevention of crime with reasonable force.
Mens Rea for Murder: Murder requires specific intent, meaning the jury must be convinced of an intention to kill or cause grievous bodily harm, as illustrated in cases like Vickers and Swift.
Indirect or Oblique Intention: Issues arise when D’s primary aim is different from causing death or serious injury, but death results, requiring examination of indirect intention.
An invaluable introduction to murder for any students of the subject!
