Wisdom of Shakespeare
Three Day Summer School

July 12 - 14th - Wisdom of Shakespeare Seminar

Peter Dawkins, Shakespeare and Bacon authority, is holding a three day seminar exploring the meaning in the Shakespeare plays. Peter works with actors, young and old, to gain a greater appreciation for how the Shakespeare plays serve as vehicles for the Western Wisdom traditions.

The Shakespeare seminar draws from Peter's ongoing Wisdom of Shakespeare series of books. This seminar, as well as his Wisdom series books, helps actors and students of Shakespeare deepen their understanding of the plays and appreciation for how the plays affected Western civilization.

Subjects include Cabala, Alchemy, the Rosicrucian Mysteries, the Wisdom Traditions and Symbolism in the plays, together with their classical roots of meaning and underlying path of initiation.

Shakespeare On Queen Elizabeth's Son

Nor shall this peace sleep with her: but as when
The bird of wonder dies, the maiden phoenix,
Her ashes new create another heir,
As great in admiration as herself;
So shall she leave her blessedness to one,
When heaven shall call her from this cloud of darkness,
Who from the sacred ashes of her honor
Shall star-like rise, as great in fame as she was,
And so stand fix'd: peace, plenty, love, truth, terror,
That were the servants to this chosen infant,
Shall then be his, and like a vine grow to him:
Wherever the bright sun of heaven shall shine,
His honor and the greatness of his name
Shall be, and make new nations: he shall flourish,
And, like a mountain cedar, reach his branches
To all the plains about him: our children's children
Shall see this, and bless heaven.
from end of Henry VIII

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players.
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages.
