7 0

The fifteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution granted African American males the right to vote by stating that an American citizen's rights could not be infringed upon on the basis of a man's race or a colour.

However, it is important to consider the fact that, although this amendment was passed, it was not heavily enforced and many African American men were still denied the right to vote, especially in southern states.

How did theater change during the days of William Shakespeare and the Globe?

Sidana [21]

William Shakespeare still has a profound influence on theater. We can summarize this influence in five big changes: 1. The theater was exclusively reserved for the wealthy and the educated. With the emergence of his writings, came tales that appealed to the masses. 2. His plays were often imbued with universal truths of human existence, rather than acting as mirrors of the privileged life. 3. The way in which Shakespeare’s plots move forward has helped define modern play-writing. 4. A new type of storytelling in which characters’ choices drive plots forward and as a consequence, journeys in his plays are dynamic. 5. Shakespeare invented genres that mixed both tragedy and comedy.
