Question

what were the views of helen keller about the works of shakespeare

Answer 1

Helen said that she was a child when she first read Shakespeare.  She was most impressed by Macbeth. Later, she read many of Shakespeare’s plays and was so captivated that she even remembered some parts of his plays by heart. She was completely in love with Shakespeare. Sometimes she enjoyed his little songs and sometimes his sonnets. She shared that she did not understand many things in Shakespeare but still liked his writings the most.

Answer 2

Keller’s views about Shakespeare were not completely out of character. She was never afraid to take unpopular positions, and made headlines as a vocal advocate of a woman’s right to vote, an opponent of child labor and an early supporter of civil rights for African-Americans.

Keller also wasn’t alone in questioning Shakespeare. Other public figures of her era – including Sigmund Freud, Walt Whitman, Charlie Chaplin and Keller’s longtime friend Mark Twain – were all Shakespeare skeptics.

Most literary scholars scoff at their anti-Shakespeare theories. They say the historic evidence is overwhelming that Shakespeare did, in fact, write the plays that bear his name. Modern-day computer analysis of his work also strongly supports “The Bard” as the lone author of most of his published plays and sonnets.
