William Blake in his Augurnies of innocence describes soft and tender beings by comparing to which we can evaluate our humanity. In the world of the war and politics, where Shakespeare located his drama, cynical people of authority become augurs. Young love after many trials falls apart. It is very easy to make wrong decisions, when the person you love is far away. Silence, distance… and after a few moments full of fear and pain we start to repeat what we heard from other people.
Troilus and Cressida lost each other, but now they are ready to live in the world where they have to always be prepared to attack and hurt the enemy before the enemy will hurt them.
We tried to understand mechanisms of relationship in wide perspective of history and society. I led the narration from a very feministic point of view and shown how big is the difference in judgments of a woman’s and a man’s behavior. Cressida was the victim of gossips and stereotypes.
