What Was Shakespeare Really Like? Hardback
by Stanley (Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, Stratford-upon-Avon) Wells
Hardback
Description
Sir Stanley Wells is one of the world's greatest authorities on William Shakespeare.
Here he brings a lifetime of learning and reflection to bear on some of the most tantalising questions about the poet and dramatist that there are.
How did he think, feel, and work? What were his relationships like? What did he believe about death? What made him laugh? This freshly thought and immensely engaging study wrestles with fundamental debates concerning Shakespeare's personality and life.
The mysteries of how Shakespeare lived, whom and how he loved, how he worked, how he produced some of the greatest and most abidingly popular works in the history of world literature and drama, have fascinated readers for centuries.
This concise, crystalline book conjures illuminating insights to reveal Shakespeare as he was.
Wells brings the writer and dramatist alive, in all his fascinating humanity, for readers of today.
