the shakespearean love and cruelty group has recruited quite a few faculty members! thus far: barbara lewalski has bagged the role of rosalind in as you like it 4.1.! and daniel albright is going to be iago. and even nicholas watson is taking part, and (rather fitting for a chaucerian!) he has decided to be diomedes in troilus and cressida. what shall i volunteer to be? i would like a in-the-background, non-speaking, decorative, and quite imaginary role, like a samphire gatherer.
