To the Editor:Re “Make Shakespeare Dirty Again,” by Drew Lichtenberg (Opinion guest essay, Aug. 14):I feel sorry for students in Florida.
Shakespeare has been revered across the globe for his wit, his wordsmithy and his deep understanding of human nature.
Ron DeSantis, it seems that the celebration, appreciation and lamentation of the human condition in its entirety, which is what has made Shakespeare last all these centuries, may be removed from what is presented to Florida students.
What an intellectual and cultural crime!
Shakespeare has captured this spirit as no other has so far.
