Book excerpt: William Shakespeare, Apprentice is a light-hearted fantasy about the years the young Shakespeare spent in the making, which are commonly referred to as the lost years. In an entertaining and persuasive way, this book defies the tenet that "whereof nothing is known thereof one must remain silent." Shakespeare finds himself drawn into the secret world of Elizabethan espionage, working for one of Sir Francis Walsingham's agents. He finds time to try his hand at poems and a play. On his return from his first trip abroad, he is given an assignment - this time on his own - to gather intelligence in Spain. After having barely set foot there, he is caught and imprisoned. He determines to become an actor if he regains his freedom. Back again in England, in April of the Armada year, Shakespeare begins his new life. A strange encounter with the charismatic young Earl of Southampton gives rise to Shakespeare's true genius.

Book Synopsis Shakespeare's Apprenticeship by : Ramon Jiménez
Download or read book Shakespeare's Apprenticeship written by Ramon Jiménez and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2018-09-24 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contents of the Shakespeare canon have come into question in recent years as scholars add plays or declare others only partially his work. Now, new literary and historical evidence demonstrates that five heretofore anonymous plays published or performed during his lifetime are actually his first versions of later canonical works. Three histories, The Famous Victories of Henry the Fifth, The True Tragedy of Richard the Third, and The Troublesome Reign of John; a comedy, The Taming of a Shrew; and a romance, King Leir, are products of Shakespeare's juvenile years. Later in his career, he transformed them into the plays that bear nearly identical titles. Each is strikingly similar to its canonical counterpart in terms of structure, plot and cast, though the texts were entirely rewritten. Virtually all scholars, critics and editors of Shakespeare have overlooked or disputed the idea that he had anything to do with them. This addition of five plays to the Shakespeare canon introduces a new facet to the authorship debate, and supplies further evidence that the real Shakespeare was Edward de Vere, seventeenth Earl of Oxford.
Book Synopsis Shakespeare the Player by : John Southworth
Download or read book Shakespeare the Player written by John Southworth and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2011-10-21 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Man of the Millennium' he may be but William Shakespeare is a shadowy historical figures. His writings have been analysed exhaustively but much of his life remains a mystery. This controversial biography aims to redress the balance. To his contemporaries, Shakespeare was known not as a playwright but as an actor, yet this has been largely ignored or marginalised by most modern writers. here John Southworth overturns traditional images of the Bard and his work, arguing that Shakespeare cannot be separated from his profession as a player any more than he can be separated from his works. Only by approaching Shakespeare's life from this new angle can we hope to learn or understand anything new about him. Following Shakespeare's life as an actor as he learns his craft and begins work on his own plays, Southworth presents the Bard and his plays in their proper context for the first time. Groundbreaking, contentious and a work of deep scholarship and understanding, 'Shakespeare the Player' should change the way we think about the English language's greatest artist.
