  • FIRST and FINAL THINGS Shakespeare's Sonnet 145, and His
    Lingue e Linguaggi Lingue Linguaggi 19 (2016), 221-233 ISSN 2239-0367, e-ISSN 2239-0359 DOI 10.1285/i22390359v19p221 http://siba-ese.unisalento.it, © 2016 Università del Salento FIRST AND FINAL THINGS Shakespeare’s Sonnet 145, and his Epitaph DAVID LUCKING UNIVERSITÀ DEL SALENTO Abstract – This paper examines certain aspects of Shakespeare’s Sonnet 145, and of the epitaph inscribed on his grave in Stratford-upon-Avon, arguably the first and the last poems composed by the dramatist. Although the grave is often described as being anonymous, it is suggested that Shakespeare does name himself obliquely in his epitaph, and that there are significant analogies between the manner in which he does so and the way in which he indirectly names his wife Anne Hathaway in a sonnet that may record an episode, whether real or imagined, in the history of their courtship. Keywords: Shakespeare; Sonnets; Epitaph. What some critics believe to be Shakespeare’s earliest poem, and what some believe to be his final poem, have certain features in common which, together with the fact that they effectively bracket the poet’s career as a writer, hint at the possibility that they might profitably be examined in the light of one another. The first of these works is Sonnet 145, which may date back to 1582, the year of the dalliance between Shakespeare and Anne Hathaway that led to consequences which, changing the course of Shakespeare’s life decisively and irrevocably, doubtless played a far from negligible role in the eventual emergence of the dramatist we know. Andrew Gurr describes this sonnet as “Shakespeare’s first poem” (Gurr 1971, pp.

    THE RAINSFORD FAMILY WITH SIDELIGHTS ON SHAKESPEARE, SOUTHAMPTON, HALL and HART Embracing 1000 years of the RAINSFORD family and their successive partakings in the main lines of national life BY EMILY A. BUCKLAND. “ In winter’s tedious nights, sit by the fire With good old folks, and let them tell thee tales.’ —King Richard II (illorrester: Phillips & Probert, Ltd., The Caxton Press. CHAPTER IX. Dr. John Hall. “ Let’s talk of graves, of worms, and epitaphs ; Make dust our paper, and with rainy eyes Write sorrow on the bosom of the earth. Let’s choose executors, and talk of Wills ; And yet not so,—for what can we bequeath, Save our deposed bodies to the ground ? , < .AA. .A/, AA. .JA Tv '7V* *75* '7V' Tv* And nothing can we call our own but death And that small model of the barren earth Which serves as paste and cover to our bones.” {King Richard II). C. C. Stopes’ “ Shakespeare’s Contemporaries,” writes :— Dr. Hall married Shakespeare’s daughter, Sus¬ annah, on June. 5th, 1607, he being thirty-two, and she twenty-five ; their only daughter, Elizabeth, was baptized at Stratford-on-Avon, February 21st, 1608. He must have remained on friendly terms with his father-in-law, because he and his wife were left residuary legatees, and the executors of Shakes¬ peare’s Will ; and they proved the Will in London, in the Archbishop of Canterbury’s Registry, June, 1616. The Doctor shortly afterwards removed to New Place, and in 1617, and also in 1623, he was elected Burgess (or bailiff) of Stratford-on-Avon, but was excused from that office on account of his pro¬ fessional engagements.
