Beschreibung
A polemical attack on the ways recent Shakespeare biographers have disguised their lack of informationFind out more about David Ellis' publicationsHow is it that biographies of Shakespeare can continue to appear when so little is known about him, and what is known has been in the public domain for so long? Why is it that a majority of the biographies published in the last decade have been written by distinguished Shakespeareans who ought to know better? This book, newly available in paperback, attempts to solve this puzzle by examining the methods the biographers have used to hide their lack of knowledge. At the same time, by exploring efforts to write a life of Shakespeare along traditional lines, it asks what kind of animal biography really is and how it should be written.Key Features: From this book, the reader can learn all that is directly known about ShakespeareAn expose of the Shakespeare biography industry showing that books which are marketed as biographies of Shakespeare are nothing of the kindAsks the reader to think about how we acquire our knowledge of other people and what we ought therefore to expect of biographies
