SHAKSPER 2005: Cartoons
From: Hardy M. Cook (editor@shaksper.net) Date: 11/22/05
The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 16.1921 Tuesday, 22 November 2005 From: Hardy M. Cook <editor@shaksper.net> Date: Tuesday, November 22, 2005 Subject: 2b?Ntb? Comment: SHK 16.1915 2b?Ntb? Yesterday, Richard Burt <rburt@english.ufl.edu> called attention to a New Yorker cartoon by Roz Chast "The I.M.s of Romeo and Juliet (Romeo and Juliet chat via Instant Messenger)." He further noted that it could be viewed with other Shakespeare inspired New Yorker cartoons online at Cartoonbank.com. Among those I found the one with the movie executive on the phone pitching a new film idea: "You'll love it! It's a tale told by an idiot." For those who may not know the artist was Bernard Schoenbaum, a prolific contributor to the New Yorker and brother of Sam. Of his close to 350 cartoon that appeared in the New Yorker, this is the only one with a Shakespeare theme. http://www.cartoonbank.com/product_details.asp?mscssid=7DNX88UHLBLV8HEGBN3QR234PH6TDX5B&sitetype=1&did=4&sid=32302&whichpage=1&sortBy=popular&keyword=Shakespeare+Schoenbaum§ion=cartoons _______________________________________________________________ S H A K S P E R: The Global Shakespeare Discussion List Hardy M.
