Life in Shakespeare's England: a Book of Elizabethan Prose
J.d. Wilson
British Shakespearean scholar JOHN DOVER WILSON (1881-1969) is best remembered for his explications of the Bard, particularly his acclaimed 1935 work What Happens in Hamlet. Here, however, he takes a rather more oblique approach to enlightening us to the world of Shakespeare, gathering together in this 1913 volume writings by contemporaries of the playwright's-some famous, some not-that illuminate the artistic society and ordinary life of Elizabethan England. Discover what the firsthand observers of the day thought about: ? English snobbery ? country sports ? festivals and revelry ? superstition, ghosts, and astrology ? parenting and children ? impressions of London ? the plague ? playhouses and bear-gardens ? the actor and his craft ? house and home ? rogues and vagabonds ? and much, much more
