Favorite quote from class recently:
Teaching Brit Lit and reading Macbeth. Introducing the play and discussing Shakespearean theater, including the laws barring women from the stage in his time, which I think contributed to a general lack of outstanding female roles in many of Shakespeare’s plays.
One of my students countered, “Yeah, but what about — uh, what’s her name? The one who went bat-crap crazy in Hamlet?”
I think “bat-crap crazy” is now my favorite descriptor.
