The Winter's Tale follows the story of Leontes, the King of Sicily, who becomes suddenly and wildly jealous, believing his wife Hermione is having an affair with his childhood friend and guest, King Polixenes of Bohemia. In a fit of madness, Leontes imprisons Hermione and has their newborn daughter Perdita abandoned. Hermione dies in prison while Perdita is rescued and raised by a shepherd. Sixteen years later, Perdita falls in love with Polixenes' son Florizel, and through a series of revelations their true identities are discovered. It is then revealed that Hermione is still alive, and the families are reunited

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The winter's tale drama
1. The Winter’s Tale Summary
How It All Goes Down
The Winter’s Tale opens in a Sicilian palace, where Polixenes (the King of Bohemia) is visiting
his childhood BFF, Leontes (the King of Sicily). After a nine month visit, Polixenes is ready to
head back home to Bohemia, but Leontes’s devoted wife, Hermione, convinces Polixenes to stay
a little bit longer. (We should point out that Leontes asks his wife to convince Polixenes to stay,
and you’ll see why this is important in a moment.) As Leontes watches his wife and best bud chat
it up, Leontes suddenly becomes wildly jealous and suspects that his very pregnant wife is
having a torrid affair with Polixenes – Leontes is certain that Hermione is carrying the man’s love
child. Leontes quickly arranges to have his old pal poisoned, but when Polixenes catches wind of
Leontes’s plot to have him off’ed, Polixenes flees with a Sicilian guy named Camillo to his home
in Bohemia.
Leontes is furious, so he throws his pregnant wife in the slammer, where she gives birth to a
daughter (later named Perdita). Paulina, a good friend of Hermione and the only person willing to
stand up to the jealous king, takes the newborn to Leontes and attempts to talk some sense into
him. But, alas, King Leontes refuses to acknowledge that he is the baby’s daddy. To make
matters worse, Leontes orders one of his men, Antigonus, to take the little ―bastard‖ for a ride out
to the Bohemian ―desert,‖ where baby Perdita is left to the harsh elements. (Yeah, we know
there’s no ―desert‖ in Bohemia but sometimes you just have to go with the flow.)
Meanwhile, Leontes puts Hermione on trial for adultery and treason (despite the fact that Apollo’s
Oracle announces Hermione is totally innocent and warns that the ―king shall live without an heir‖
if Perdita, who is in the process of being disappeared, is not found. During Hermione’s trial, a
servant enters with news that Prince Mammilius (the precocious young son of Hermione and
Leontes) has died because he’s been so upset about the way Leontes is treating his mother.
When Hermione hears the news, she falls to the ground and, soon after, we’re told she is also
dead. Leontes realizes what he’s done and has a sudden change of heart – he immediately falls
to his knees and begs forgiveness from the god Apollo for being such a rotten husband, father,
and friend, which is nice to hear but is pretty much a day late and a dollar short.
Meanwhile, Antigonus reaches the coast of Bohemia (yeah, we know there’s no ―coast‖ in
landlocked Bohemia either, but again, we just have to go with it). Antigonus dumps off baby
Perdita and…is promptly eaten by a hungry bear! (We’re not even kidding.) Luckily, an Old
Shepherd happens along and finds baby Perdita, along with a bundle of riches and some
documents that detail the kid’s royal heritage. (Remember this, because it’s important later.) The
Old Shepherd and his country bumpkin son (the Clown) decide, what the heck, let’s keep the
cash and raise the kid as our own.
A figure called ―Time‖ appears on stage and announces that sixteen years have passed and the
audience should just sit back, relax, and enjoy Big Willie Shakespeare’s show. (FYI: Flashforwards were kind of a big no-no on the English Renaissance stage so, Shakespeare’s being
kind of innovative and irreverent here. Check out ―Setting‖ if you want to know more about this.)
At a Bohemian sheep-shearing festival (a big, spring/summer party that uses sheep haircuts as
an excuse for everyone to celebrate the nice weather and for young people to hook up), we learn
that Perdita has grown up to be the prettiest girl in Bohemia (which is why she gets to be Queen
2. of the Feast) and is going steady with a gorgeous young prince named Florizel, who just so
happens to be the son of King Polixenes. (Yep, that’s Leontes’s ex-best friend all right. You
probably see where this is going.) There’s just one hitch – King Polixenes doesn’t know his son is
dating a lowly shepherd’s daughter. (As you can see, nobody knows Perdita’s true identity – not
even Perdita.) When Polixenes finds out, he tries to put the kibosh on the young couple’s
engagement. Florizel, throwing caution to the wind, defies daddy’s wishes. What’s a father to do?
Why, threaten to have Perdita’s face disfigured and declare he’s going to have the Old Shepherd
executed, of course. (Hmm. Is it just us or, does Polixenes sound a lot like the tyrannous Leontes
here?)
Florizel and Perdita run off to Sicily, where Leontes has been beating himself up for the last
sixteen years (with the help of Paulina, who has seen to it that Leontes never, ever, ever forgets
that he’s responsible for the deaths of Hermione and Mammilius). Polixenes and his entourage
chase the couple to the Sicilian court. Before Polixenes can break up the couple and make good
on his promise to scratch up Perdita’s pretty, young face, the Old Shepherd and the Clown arrive
at Leontes’s court with the letters that verify Perdita’s identity. (Remember the bundle of cash
and documents Antigonus left with baby Perdita before he was eaten by a bear?)
Big sigh of relief – now the royal couple can get hitched and Sicily will finally have a royal heir to
take over Leontes’s reign when the old man dies. Plus, Leontes and Polixenes can be best buds
again.
But wait, there’s more. Paulina invites the entire crew to her place, where she unveils a statue of
Hermione. Everyone oohs and ahs over how lifelike the statue is when suddenly and
miraculously the statue is…not a statue at all but a veryalive Hermione. Hurray! Leontes and
Hermione reunite as husband and wife. Leontes then announces that Paulina should get hitched
to Camillo (since Paulina’s late husband was eaten by a bear on account of Leontes and all).
And they all live happily ever after (except for Mammilius and Antigonus, who are still dead).
Tools of Characterization
Character Analysis
Names
In The Winter’s Tale, names tend to either serve a practical purpose (Clown, Old Shepherd, Lord,
etc.) or a symbolic function.
The name Perdita means ―that which is lost,‖ which is fitting given that Perdita is
abandoned in the desert and lost to her biological family for sixteen years.
Florizel’s name is associated with the flowers of springtime, aligning the prince with
romance and renewal, which is exactly what Florizel’s budding relationship with Perdita
promises.
Leontes’s name is suggestive of his lion-like nature – he’s aggressive, angry, and wildly
jealous in the first half of the play. (Although, we should point out that Leontes turns into
a pussy cat after he repents for his bad behavior.)
Paulina’s name recalls that of Paul the Apostle (a.k.a. St. Paul). Like the influential
apostle, whose epistles appear in the New Testament, Paulina becomes a spiritual guide
3. in the latter half of the play, showing Leontes the error of his ways and leading him to the
place where Hermione’s miraculous resurrection occurs.
Mammilius’s name derives from the word ―mamma,‖ which means ―breast‖ in Latin. The
name closely links the young boy with his mother and also the women that act as his
caregivers. Leontes knows Mammilius is close to his mommy, which is why he takes
Mammilius away from Hermione in order to punish his wife. When Mammilius is
separated from his nurturing mother, he becomes ill and dies, just as a nursing infant
would if it was taken from its mother’s breast.
Actions
Hmm. This one seems easy enough. Leontes throws his pregnant wife in jail, puts her on trial for
adultery and treason, and then orders a man to abandon baby Perdita in the middle of the
―desert.‖ Leontes’s actions make him a tyrant for much of the play, don’t you think? It’s not until
after he repents (for sixteen long years) that he even resembles a human being. What about
Polixenes, the guy who at first appears to be an innocent king? Well, Polixenes acts like a tyrant
as well when he finds out that his son is engaged to a country bumpkin – he threatens to have
Perdita’s face disfigured and says he’ll have her ―father‖ executed. Yikes!
Age
In The Winter’s Tale the old folks (we’re talking to you, Leontes, Polixenes, and Antigonus) are
responsible for all the problems in the world – the fracturing of families and friends, the deaths of
loved ones, and others issues that cause suffering and heartache. The youngsters, on the other
hand, are responsible for reuniting families and friends and reigniting hope for the future. Witness,
for example, Florizel and Perdita, whose young love brings the families together in Sicily just
before Hermione returns from the ―dead.‖
Leontes - The King of Sicilia, and the childhood friend of the Bohemian King Polixenes. He is
gripped by jealous fantasies, which convince him that Polixenes has been having an affair with
his wife, Hermione; his jealousy leads to the destruction of his family.
Hermione - The virtuous and beautiful Queen of Sicilia. Falsely accused of infidelity by
her husband, Leontes, she apparently dies of grief just after being vindicated by the
Oracle of Delphi, but is restored to life at the play's close.
Perdita - The daughter of Leontes and Hermione. Because her father believes her to be
illegitimate, she is abandoned as a baby on the coast of Bohemia, and brought up by a
Shepherd. Unaware of her royal lineage, she falls in love with the Bohemian Prince
Florizel.
4. Polixenes - The King of Bohemia, and Leontes's boyhood friend. He is falsely accused of
having an affair with Leontes's wife, and barely escapes Sicilia with his life. Much later in
life, he sees his only son fall in love with a lowly Shepherd's daughter—who is, in fact, a
Sicilian princess.
Florizel - Polixenes's only son and heir; he falls in love with Perdita, unaware of her royal
ancestry, and defies his father by eloping with her.
Camillo - An honest Sicilian nobleman, he refuses to follow Leontes's order to poison
Polixenes, deciding instead to flee Sicily and enter the Bohemian King's service.
Paulina - A noblewoman of Sicily, she is fierce in her defense of Hermione's virtue, and
unrelenting in her condemnation of Leontes after Hermione's death. She is also the agent
of the (apparently) dead Queen's resurrection.
Autolycus - A roguish peddler, vagabond, and pickpocket; he steals the Clown's purse
and does a great deal of pilfering at the Shepherd's sheepshearing, but ends by assisting
in Perdita and Florizel's escape.
Shepherd - An old and honorable sheep-tender, he finds Perdita as a baby and raises her
as his own daughter.
Antigonus - Paulina's husband, and also a loyal defender of Hermione. He is given the
unfortunate task of abandoning the baby Perdita on the Bohemian coast.
Clown - The Shepherd's buffoonish son, and Perdita's adopted brother.
Mamillius - The young prince of Sicilia, Leontes and Hermione's son. He dies, perhaps of
grief, after his father wrongly imprisons his mother.
Cleomenes - A lord of Sicilia, sent to Delphi to ask the Oracle about Hermione's guilt.
Dion - A Sicilian lord, he accompanies Cleomenes to Delphi.
Emilia - One of Hermione's ladies-in-waiting.
Archidamus - A lord of Bohemia.
THE WINTER'S TALE
5. William Shakespeare
←
Analysis
→
The Winter's Tale is a perfect tragicomedy. Set in an imaginary world where Bohemia has a
seacoast, and where ancient Greek oracles coexist with Renaissance sculptors, it offers three
acts of unremitting tragedy, followed by two acts of restorative comedy. In between, sixteen
years pass hastily, a lapse which many critics have taken as a structural flaw, but which actually
only serves to highlight the disparity of theme, setting, and action between the two halves of the
play. The one is set amid gloomy winter, and illuminates the destructive power that mistaken
jealousy exercises over the family of Leontes, King of Sicilia; in the second half, flower-strewn
spring intervenes, and all the damage that the King's folly accomplished is undone—through
coincidence, goodwill, and finally through miracle, as a statue of his dead wife comes to life and
embraces him.
As the force behind the tragedy stems from Leontes's belief that his wife, Hermione, and best
friend, King Polixenes of Bohemia, are lovers, so Leontes has attracted more critical interest than
any other character in the play. An Othello who is his own Iago, he is a perfect paranoiac,
convinced that he has all the facts and ready to twist any counter-argument to fit his (mistaken)
perception of the world. Perhaps because of its uncertain origin, Leontes's madness is a
terrifying thing: he becomes a poet of nihilism, demanding, when told that there is "nothing"
between Hermione and Polixenes, "Is this nothing? / Why, then the world and all that's in't is
nothing, / The covering sky's nothing, Bohemia nothing, / My wife is nothing, nor nothing have
6. these nothings, / If this be nothing"(I.ii.292-296). The roots of his jealousy seem to run too deep
for the play to plumb—there are hints of misogyny, of dynastic insecurity, and of an inability to
truly separate himself psychologically from Polixenes, but no definitive answers. Indeed, the only
answer is his own—in one of Shakespeare's finer images, Leontes says "I have drunk, and seen
the spider"(II.i.45).
To balance his morbid, brooding nihilism and sexual jealousy, Shakespeare makes Leontes's
daughter Perdita a poet of spring, rebirth, and revitalization, whose own lover (Polixenes's son
Florizel) is as constant and generous as Leontes is suspicious and cruel. She appears decked in
flowers, and when she dispenses them to everyone around her, the play links her with
Proserpina, Roman goddess of the spring and growing things. If Leontes is a tragic hero, then
she is a fairy-tale heroine, a princess reared among commoners who falls in love with a prince
and—eventually—lives happily ever after. Leontes casts her out as an infant in Act III, when he is
in the grip of darkness; in Act V she returns to him, and restores him to happiness. The miracle of
Hermione's resurrection at the play's close is only a fitting close to the spirit of rebirth that Perdita
brings into the story.
The play is also notable for its rich group of supporting characters. Hermione is an exemplary
and eloquent figure, despite the fact that she spends the play defending herself against unjust
accusations, and her friend Paulina is the voice of sanity while Leontes is mad and then the voice
of reminder and penance once he regrets his crimes. The rustic Shepherd who takes in Perdita
and the ever-faithful lord, Camillo are both sympathetic characters, too, but none can match
Autolycus, the peddler, thief and minstrel who is a harmless villain (he robs, lies, and cheats)—so
harmless, in fact, that the audience forgives and even applauds him as he sings, dances, and
robs his way through the play, contriving even to find time to provide a helping hand to the other
characters as they struggle toward their happy ending.
