In this episode I get to talk about Shakespeare’s life. We’ll very briefly cover:
- Sources for learning more about Shakespeare; Sources that influenced this podcast
- Birth (April 23, 1564?)
- Early Education (Catholic Jesuit?)
- “The Lost Years” (Deer Poaching incident?)
- Shakespeare’s father (Alcoholic?)
- The Bubonic Plague
- Marriage to Anne Hathaway (His will and codicil left her his 2nd best bed)
Thanks for listening. You can hear my dog, Eggers, lightly whining in some of this and I couldn’t get it all out. I apologize for that. He was much more interested in taking our walk on the Friday when I recorded this than in listening to me talk about Shakespeare.
