Speaker Report - Rachel Stenner

A big thank you to Rachel Stenner for her fantastic presentation on Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida, and being an 'Eternal Reader'.
Rachel Stenner, engaging with her presentation material.
To help orientate us, Rachel created the atmosphere of the crowded theaters, brimming with rogues and the common folk. Contrasted with this wild world, that of the quiet reader was shown - leading us to see how texts can be appreciated in different ways by different readers. Throughout the presentation, Rachel used a number of approaches to engage the audience: PowerPoint; a handout; and various quotes. With perfect clarity, poise, eloquence and timing, the presentation was definitely a treat for everyone present.
