Summary
A historical account of Shakespeare's participation in an 1612 court case involving an unpaid marriage dowry offers insight into the bard's obscure private life, in a volume that draws on a wide variety of sources to piece together the environment in which such plays as Othello, Measure for Measure, and King Lear were written. 30,000 first printing.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: In 1612, Shakespeare gave evidence in a court case at Westminsterâand it is the only occasion on which his actual spoken words were recorded. In The Lodger Shakespeare, Charles Nicholl applies a powerful biographical magnifying glass to this fascinating but little-known episode in the Bardâs life. Drawing on evidence from a wide variety of sources, Nicholl creates a compellingly detailed account of the circumstances in which Shakespeare lived and worked amid the bustle of early seventeenth-century London. This elegant, often unexpected exploration presents a new and original look at Shakespeare as he was writing such masterpieces as Othello, Measure for Measure, and King Lear.
