This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1915 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER II WILL SHAKSPERE. The material that we possess for a life of Shakspere consists of municipal records and of records of the theatrical company to which he belonged. We have no account of his literary or social life; and if we were to draw the usual conclusions from the absence of his name in the memoirs and correspondence of the day, we should have to believe that Shakspere had no part in the great social world, and no friendships outside of the narrow circle of his fellow-actors, and of his fellow-townsmen. A number of late and untrustworthy anecdotes have been collected which represent him as having been a butcher's boy of theatrical tendencies; as a deer stealer; as beginning in London by holding horses in front of a theatre; as seducing an inn-keeper's wife at Oxford, and as dying in consequence of a drunken spree. It is regrettable that all of the traditions should be of this character, and that none should survive to relate some act or word of kindness, some elevated thought or poetical saying to preserve a worthy memory of the personality of the greatest genius. One tale there is of a favor done to Jonson, which we shall see later to be apochryphal. Shakespeareans attribute to him the qualities which they conceive must have formed the equipment of one whom they lovingly call "The Master." They assume that he was dignified and cultured; a lawyer, a traveler, a soldier and a courtier. On the other hand, Baconians are prone to conceive of him as an ignorant, drunken boor, and a mere vulgar impostor. Neither of these extreme positions is justified by the facts. Shakspere appears to have been a shrewd, virile Englishman, with a taste for wine and for women, and a fondness for low company which remained with him to the end of...

Excerpt from Silent Shakespeare In presenting the results of several years of preparation, the writer desires to acknowl edge his indebtedness to the large body of investigators, from Malone to Halliwell Phillipps, who have ransacked libraries and garrets for new light upon the subject of this sketch. To many of these something is owing, and frequent mention of authorities has been made in the text. But since it is clearly impracticable to trace, in every case, the source from which a suggestion has been received, this general acknowledgment is made, with the hope that no reference of importance has been omitted.

This expansive four-volume work gives students detailed explanations of Shakespeare's plays and poems and also covers his age, life, theater, texts, and language. Numerous excerpts from primary source historical documents contextualize his works, while reviews of productions chronicle his performance history and reception. Shakespeare's works often served to convey simple truths, but they are also complex, multilayered masterpieces. Shakespeare drew on varied sources to create his plays, and while the plays are sometimes set in worlds before the Elizabethan age, they nonetheless parallel and comment on situations in his own era. Written with the needs of students in mind, this four-volume set demystifies Shakespeare for today's readers and provides the necessary perspective and analysis students need to better appreciate the genius of his work. This indispensable ready reference examines Shakespeare's plots, language, and themes; his use of sources and exploration of issues important to his age; the interpretation of his works through productions from the Renaissance to the present; and the critical reaction to key questions concerning his writings. The book provides coverage of each key play and poems in discrete sections, with each section presenting summaries; discussions of themes, characters, language, and imagery; and clear explications of key passages. Readers will be able to inspect historical documents related to the topics explored in the work being discussed and view excerpts from Shakespeare's sources as well as reviews of major productions. The work also provides a comprehensive list of print and electronic resources suitable for student research.

In 1899, when film projection was barely three years old, Herbert Beerbohm Tree was filmed as King John. In his highly entertaining history, Robert Hamilton Ball traces in detail the fate of Shakespeare on silent films from Tree’s first effort until the establishment of sound in 1929. The silent films brought Shakespeare to a wide public who had never had the chance to see his plays in the theatre. And Shakespeare gave the film makers an air of respectability that was badly needed by a medium with a reputation for frivolity. This work, first published in 1968, brings history to life with excerpts from scenarios, from reviews and from contemporary film journals, and with reproduction of stills and frames from the films themselves, including unusual shots of leading screen actors. This is a valuable source book for film experts, enhanced by full notes, bibliography and indexes; a fresh approach for Shakespeareans; and a vivid sketch of a world that has passed for all.

For two hundred years after William Shakespeare's death, no one thought to argue that somebody else had written his plays. Since then dozens of rival candidates - including The Earl of Oxford, Sir Francis Bacon and Christopher Marlowe - have been proposed as their true author. Contested Will unravels the mystery of when and why so many people began to question whether Shakespeare wrote the plays (among them such leading writers and artists as Sigmund Freud, Henry James, Mark Twain, Helen Keller, Orson Welles, and Sir Derek Jacobi) Shakespeare scholar James Shapiro's fascinating search for the source of this controversy retraces a path strewn with fabricated documents, calls for trials, false claimants, concealed identity, bald-faced deception and a failure to grasp what could not be imagined. If Contested Will does not end the authorship question once and for all, it will nonetheless irrevocably change the nature of the debate by confronting what's really contested: are the plays and poems of Shakespeare autobiographical, and if so, do they hold the key to the question of who wrote them? '[Shapiro] writes erudite, undumbed-down history that . . . reads as fluidly as a good novel.' David Mitchell, the Guardian.
