Book Synopsis The Private Life of William Shakespeare by : Lena Cowen Orlin
Download or read book The Private Life of William Shakespeare written by Lena Cowen Orlin and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-08-26 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new biography of William Shakespeare that explores his private life in Stratford-upon-Avon, his personal aspirations, his self-determination, and his relations with the members of his family and his neighbours. The Private Life of William Shakespeare tells the story of Shakespeare in Stratford as a family man. The book offers close readings of key documents associated with Shakespeare and develops a contextual understanding of the genres from which these documents emerge. It reconsiders clusters of evidence that have been held to prove some persistent biographical fables. It also shows how the histories of some of Shakespeare's neighbours illuminate aspects of his own life. Throughout, we encounter a Shakespeare who consciously and with purpose designed his life. Having witnessed the business failures of his merchant father, he determined not to follow his father's model. His early wedding freed him from craft training to pursue a literary career. His wife's work, and probably the assistance of his parents and brothers, enabled him to make the first of the property purchases that grounded his life as a gentleman. With his will, he provided for both his daughters in ways that were suitable to their circumstances; Anne Shakespeare was already protected by dower rights in the houses and lands he had acquired. His funerary monument suggests that the man of 'small Latin and less Greek' in fact had some experience of an Oxford education. Evidences are that he commissioned the monument himself.

Written around the middle of his career (1598 and 1599), Much Ado About Nothing is one of Shakespeare's great festive comedies. The men are back from the war, and everyone is ready for romance. The dashing young Claudio falls for Hero, the daughter of Leonato, governor of Messina, and his friend Don Pedro helps him secure her affection. These youthful lovers are contrasted with the more experienced Benedick and Beatrice, who have to be tricked into falling in love. Don Pedro's bastard brother, Don John, provides the intrigue, and the dimwitted constable Dogberry provides the laughs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK William Shakespeare is arguably the most important figure in Western literature. Critic Harold Bloom claims it is impossible to escape Shakespeare, that "no one yet has managed to be post-Shakespearean.” Shakespeare’s reputation has only grown in the period since his death; especially since the end of the 17th century when Classical dramatic ideals went out of fashion, for Shakespeare's endless inventiveness and blending of comedy and tragedy conflicted with these strict rules. His popularity reached the stratospheric heights we are familiar with today in the 19th century, when the Romantics found his work elided with their aesthetic concerns. It is not just in the rarefied realm of literature that Shakespeare's influence weighs heavy; the very English language remains unbelievably Shakespearean. He can claim first recorded usage of 2,035 words, with Hamlet alone contributing 600, an average of one every two-and-a-half lines. David Crystal, in "The Stories of English," points out many of these are words with un- prefixes, such as unlock, unmask, untie, unveil. Just imagine how wordy and inelegant the alternatives are. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK Shakespeare could not have chosen a better time to become a playwright. The first theater in London opened in 1567, and by the time Shakespeare arrived, more and more were springing up around the outskirts of London. This was the golden age of theater, and between 1567 and the Puritans' closing of the playhouses 75 years later, it is thought over 50 million paying customers saw plays in London, ten times the population of England at the time. Elizabethan theaters were tremendously spare compared to theaters of today, with barely any scenery and no curtains (even at the theater named the Curtain). They made up for this with copious amounts of gore – sheep blood and guts would be liberally splashed on swords and "dead" actors, and bloody artificial limbs would be strewn about battlefields. Firearms were popular too – though this could be quite risky, as a large proportion of Elizabethan theaters met their end with a stray spark setting dry straw alight, including Shakespeare's Globe...
