English has stress, so the distinction between poetry and prose is clear, and the author's intention is clearly expressed.\u003cbr\u003e The reason Shakespeare is called a 'magician of language' is because he made amazing use of the most natural rhythm in English, 'iamb pentameter' (five stressed syllables next to one unstressed syllable, no rhyme used).\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, it is not easy to preserve Shakespeare's language when putting a translated work on stage.\u003cbr\u003e Professor Choi Jong-cheol fully understood this point and brought the charm of Shakespeare's language to life in Korean. In this respect, he can be said to be the first Shakespeare scholar to fully translate the 'Four Great Tragedies'. \u003cbr\u003eIn other words, the format was adopted to preserve the rhythm of the original text as much as possible, while selecting vocabulary appropriate for a modern stage script.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe most performed work of all time, the pinnacle of world literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Shakespeare's works were, above all, plays for the stage.\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, as he wrote the work with the dialogue in mind, Professor Choi Jong-cheol focused on maximizing the dramatic effect that Shakespeare intended in this work, unlike previous translations that were unsuitable for theatrical performance.\u003cbr\u003e The greatness of Shakespeare's plays lies above all in their poetic musicality.\u003cbr\u003e However, due to the fundamental differences between English and Korean, there was no attempt to preserve this musicality in existing translations.\u003cbr\u003e Professor Choi Jong-cheol believes that the musicality of Shakespeare's works is not a problem that can be solved by forcibly creating instruments that we do not have, but that the true essence of his music is conveyed when we play it on instruments that we already have. \u003cbr\u003eIn particular, the reason Professor Choi Jong-cheol judged the 3·4·3·4 rhythm to be the most suitable is because the number of letters in those fourteen letters is similar to the number of letters in the words in Shakespeare's '5 steps'.\u003cbr\u003e In other words, we are certain that the amount of sound and meaning that a person can most comfortably convey in one breath in one line is similar in English and Korean.\u003cbr\u003e Also, the reason for frequently changing word order is to avoid monotony caused by sentences in Korean mostly ending with '-da' or '-yo'.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShakespeare's four major tragedies: the most modern of all time\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Along with Hamlet, King Lear, and Macbeth, Othello is one of Shakespeare's four major tragedies and is therefore another major axis for studying Shakespeare's works and the plays of his time. \u003cbr\u003eWhat makes Othello different from the other three tragedies is the role of Iago.\u003cbr\u003e King Claudius in Hamlet, the unfaithful daughters in King Lear, and the ghosts in Macbeth are all evil in their own way, but they do not enjoy the devil-like role as Iago does.\u003cbr\u003e Iago is the key figure in forming the plot, directly connected to all the other characters, and is especially the one who brings out the essence hidden within Othello.\u003cbr\u003e In this work, the gap between what is visible, that is, reality and appearance, forms the most important theme, and Professor Choi Jong-cheol's \"Commentary on the Work\" explains this well.\u003cbr\u003e In addition, it contains many themes and various interpretations, such as trust and honor, patriarchal political situations, and racial issues. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e -
