英国首相撰文：永恒的莎士比亚

Every day throughout 2016, Britain is inviting you to join us in celebrating the life and legacy of William Shakespeare. On 5 January, Twelfth Night, we launched “Shakespeare Lives” – an exciting global programme of activity and events to highlight his enduring influence and extend the use of Shakespeare as an educational resource to advance literacy around the world.

2016年，英国邀您一起了解莎翁生平，欣赏莎翁名作。1月5日，我们将在全球推出“永恒的莎士比亚”纪念活动，纪念他的不朽魅力，并将其作品作为教材，在全球推广文学鉴赏活动。

The programme will run in more than seventy countries, led by the British Council and the Great Britain campaign. You can share your favourite moment of Shakespeare on social media, watch never-before-seen performances on stage, film and online, visit exhibitions, take part in workshops and debates, and access new Shakespearean educational resources to get to grips with the English language.

该活动由英国文化协会和GREAT英国推广活动主办，在全球70多个国家开展。您可以在社交媒体上分享莎翁精彩时刻，观看前所未有的舞台表演、电影和在线节目，参观展览，参加讨论并获得新版莎翁教材，提高英语水平。

The Royal Shakespeare Company will tour China; Shakespeare's Globe will perform across the world from Iraq to Denmark. Young people will reimagine Shakespeare in Zimbabwe. A social media campaign called “Play your Part” (#PlayYourPart) will invite the next generation of creative talent to produce their own digital tribute to the Bard – and, in partnership with the British charity Voluntary Services Overseas, we will raise awareness of the huge challenge of global child illiteracy and use Shakespeare to increase educational opportunities for children around the world.
