The Fugitive Shakespeare and Sonnet 144
Author: Charles Murray Willis
Publisher: Austin Macauley Publishers
ISBN: 1035822369
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
THE FUGITIVE SHAKESPEARE AND SONNET 144 The discovery of a 16th century manuscript version of Shakespeare’s Sonnet 144 is the most important historical and literary find ever made relating to Shakespearean studies. The date of composition of this manuscript indicates ca.1577-78 when William Shakspere (the original spelling of his family name) was aged between 13-14 which would suggest that he couldn’t have written this Sonnet because he was too young. The story behind this discovery and how the document was found is as astonishing as how the document has managed to survive for over 400 years. The connection in this story between Shakespeare and the famous playwright Ben Jonson is also explored as it was Jonson who provided the most important evidence that Shakespeare was the author of the First Folio which was published in 1623. “At last, after more than four hundred years there is a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel, a significant Shakespearean clue has been discovered which may help to solve the Shakespeare authorship question.” – Sir Derek Jacobi, award-winning Shakespearean actor.

Books in Cambridge Inventories: Volume 2, Catalogue
Author: E. S. Leedham-Green
Publisher: CUP Archive
ISBN: 9780521308731
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 884
Book Description
These two volumes, published early in 1987 will now be made available for purchase, at a special price, as a Set. They list the contents of two hundred private libraries, as recorded in inventories presented for probate in the Vice-Chancellor's Court at the University of Cambridge between 1535 and 1760. Most of the books listed (as well as the maps and instruments, scientific and musical) reflect the flowering of the late English Renaissance as it affected all levels of the University community from academic potentates to the humblest student. The first volume presents the lists themselves, with brief biographical details of the books' owners, and appendices which include extracts from early wills; the second volume catalogues by author and title the books listed in Volume I, and is further supplied with an index, under broad subject-headings, of the authors represented. Dr. Leedham-Green has assembled one of the largest collections of private book-holdings ever published for this period in this country, comprising some 20,000 titles.
