					<description><![CDATA[In&#160;Shakespeare: The Invention of the Human, Harold Bloom argues that Shakespeare did more than just shape the structure and content of the English language—he created human nature as we understand it today. As James Shapiro explains,&#160;&#8220;Shakespeare remains so popular and his most memorable characters feel so real because through them Shakespeare invented something that hadn&#8217;t [&#8230;]]]></description>

But I would argue that the scenes which follow &#8220;To be or not to be&#8221; would tell you more [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In time, The Revenant might be best remembered for an underlying historical question. Leonardo DiCaprio plays the role of frontiersman Hugh Glass with great conviction, delivering an impressive physical performance that few actors would even attempt. In order to capture the perfect mood for this ambitious recounting of an American legend, director&#160;Alejandro G. Iñárritu relied [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This is the fifth in a series of columns that feature a much-loved poem, and a second poem that speaks to, or resonates with, that poem. This week’s poem is “All the World’s a Stage” by William Shakespeare, written around 1600. The Poetry Foundation states, “While William Shakespeare&#8217;s reputation is based primarily on his plays, [&#8230;]]]></description>
