Historian

In our interpretation of the play, The Taming of the Shrew, Jidam Lee was assigned the role of Historian. As the Historian, Jidam's task was to research the Elizabethan era and the 1920s "Chicago"-style theme of our project. He was also responsible for ensuring no inaccuracies of our era were present in our play and writing an essay on the similarities and differences between the Elizabethan era and the 1920s.

Jidam completed his research the in the first week the project was assigned (the Saturday of). The essay was assigned on the Monday after, and was also due on Saturday. Jidam actually finished his work well before any of us even thought of starting (oops) their respective roles. However, the research and essay were assigned extremely early due to conflicts during every week in school and all of spring break. Thus, he had to record himself in the scene with Mycroft alone.

These hardships did not deter Jidam from completing his work early and on time. In a private interview with this him, Jidam is seen as extremely modest when he says, "Sorry I'm not more helpful. I honestly have the easiest role. There's not much to write about. I researched. I wrote." Here we can see Jidam's modest and gentle nature. Though juniors that had completed The Taming of the Shrew often complained of the tedious and long hours they spent researching and writing the essay as the Historian, he took this role with pride and completed it quickly and efficiently.
