As to those nominated as ‘Mr. W.H.’, the list ranges from William Herbert to Henry Wroithesley (with initials reversed) to William Harvey (Wroithesley’s stepfather). In 1964 Leslie Hotson proposed one William Hatcliffe of Lincolnshire [!], while Thomas Tyrwitt, Edmond Malone, and Oscar Wilde all favoured a (fictional) boy actor, Willie Hughes. Among candidates for the ‘fair youth’, Henry Wroithesley, Earl of Southampton (1573–1624), appears to have outlasted all comers. Those proposed as the rival poet include Christopher Marlowe (more interested in boys than ladies dark or light); Samuel Daniel (Herbert’s sometime tutor);2 Michael Drayton, drinking partner of Jonson and Shakespeare; George Chapman, whose Seaven Bookes of the Iliades (1598) were a source for Troilus and Cressida; and Barnabe Barnes, lampooned by Nashe as ‘Barnaby Bright’ in Have with you to Saffron-Walden.

  • Othello` (Version II, in English) Lev I
    [Введите текст] On the hidden meaning of Shakespeare's tragedy `Othello` (Version II, in English) Lev I. Verkhovsky Shakespeare's tragedy "Othello" is considered by many to be the most perfect from the works of Shakespeare. Some people inclined to consider it even as the most perfect dramatic creation in the world. A. Blok Exactly a century ago, in October 1919, Alexander Blok gave a lecture to the actors of the Bolshoi Drama Theater “The secret meaning of the tragedy "Othello", which was published at the same time. In it, he tried to reveal the reasons why this work of art so deeply affects the viewer and reader. We are going to reflect on the secret meaning of "Othello" from a completely different angle. Plays by Shakespeare (and also by Ben Jonson and other Elizabethans) often contained second, hidden plans. In them, playwrights portrayed famous people or their acquaintances, sorted out relationships, settled scores; only people of their circle could see and understand this. It is clear that such hidden information is always closely related to the personality of a particular author, therefore, its consideration in the case of `Othello`, in our opinion, is important for solving Shakespeare's question. Chapter 1 `The Tragedy of Othello, The Moor of Venice` was first staged at the Globe Theater in November 1604, and was probably written not long before. It appeared in print only in 1622 in the form of a quarto, and a year later a slightly different, expanded version of it was presented in the First Folio; what is the relationship of these two texts is still not clear.

  • A Half-Closed Book
    A HALF-CLOSED BOOK Compiled by J. L. Herrera TO THE MEMORY OF: Mary Brice AND WITH SPECIAL THANKS TO: Madge Portwin, Margaret Clarke, Isla MacGregor, Bob Clark, Betty Cameron, Ken Herrera, Cheryl Perriman, and sundry libraries, op-shops, and book exchanges INTRODUCTION Just one more ramble through unexpected byways and surprising twists and turns … yes, I think everyone is allowed to go out with neither bang nor whimper but with her eyes glued to the page … Poor dear, people can say, she didn’t see that bus coming … The difficulty of course is where to store everything; and finding room in my mind is sometimes as tricky as finding room in my bedroom. But was it a good idea to do a short writer’s calendar? A year instead of my usual three years. I had mixed feelings about it. It was nice to see a book take shape so (relatively) swiftly. But I also felt the bits and pieces hadn’t had time to marinate fully. That sense of organic development had been hurried. I also found I tended to run with the simpler stories rather than the ones that needed some research—and some luck, some serendipity. On the other hand, how long a soaking constitutes a decent marinade? Not being a good cook I always find that hard to decide … So this will be a book without a deadline. One which can just wander along in spare moments. Its date will have to wait. Even so, I hope that anyone who happens to read it some day will enjoy it as much as I always enjoy the compiling of books on writing and reading.

  • Who Is the Dark Lady of the Sonnets: Shaw Versus Shakespeare
    WHO IS THE DARK LADY OF THE SONNETS: SHAW VERSUS SHAKESPEARE BILJANA VLAŠKOVIĆ University of Kragujevac Abstract: Many questions have been raised concerning the identity of the two persons to whom Shakespeare dedicated his Sonnets. The paper concentrates on Shakespeare’s “Dark Lady” and delves into G. B. Shaw’s play The Dark Lady of the Sonnets whilst trying to disclose the true identity of the woman in question – was she Emilia Lanier, Mary Fitton, or someone else? Keywords: The Sonnets, the Dark Lady, William Shakespeare, G. B. Shaw 1. Introduction Imagine reaching the end of a detective novel and not being told who the killer is! The sensation can be compared to the fascination which surrounds the everlasting mystery of Shakespeare’s Sonnets. Although indisputably miniature masterpieces in and by themselves, the Sonnets are indebted to the undisclosed identities of a Mr. W H and a Dark Lady for their unremitting popularity. This paper is an attempt at unraveling the mystery of the Dark Lady’s identity: but, what started with a narrow range of options as for who this woman might have really been has amounted up to a narrow investigation of both the Sonnets and the historical context which surrounds them. This investigation in turn provided me, the literary sleuth, with evidence connecting the Dark Lady of the Sonnets with as many as seven Elizabethan women! Indubitably, all the women had to share certain characteristics as described in the Sonnets, and a sole missing element would be enough to eliminate a lady from the group of suspects.

  • The Body Marks the Soul
    BETWEEN THE COVERS COMPILED BY J. L. HERRERA BETWEEN THE COVERS To the Memory of TONY BAULD With Special Thanks to Madge Portwin, Rose Brown, Brenda Dudkowiak, Cheryl Perriman, Marie Cameron, Hobart Toastmasters Club, Ken Clarke, Patrick Herrera, Margaret Clarke INTRODUCTION Another Writer’s Calendar type book? Just one more? It is a bit like being tempted by chocolate cake or asparagus puffs. We-e-ll, just one more. Just a wee bit. Just a taste. And so here it is. I justified it to myself using much the same argument I use when there’s a little bit of something nice left on a plate. It doesn’t seem worth putting away. Also I had a few little bits and pieces, ideas, things I thought I would like to follow up, still sitting around. Of course this is a specious argument. Give me a few months and I will have collected piles of new things to add to my leftovers. And although I sometimes feel I am wasting time, all those wonderful things I could be doing and am not, I am increasingly inclined to think that, like family history, ‘writers’ calendars’ constantly press out the boundaries of my life and knowledge and imagination. I won’t claim that they make me a better person, there is absolutely no evidence for that, but they make me a more ‘satisfied’ person and in a curious way I think that is valuable. The world is full of dissatisfied people, I don’t mean dissatisfied with the political and social status of a suffering world, but dissatisfied with what they’ve got, they want a bigger share, something different, someone else’s life (all those programs asking people who they would like to be) … but just give me a good book and enough light to read by and I ‘wudn’t call the quane me cousin’.

  • Bassano Article for SONL-1
    New Light on the Dark Lady Stephanie Hopkins Hughes or anyone who cares about authors, for whom it is almost as important to Fknow how great works of art come to be written as it is to know the works themselves, Shakespeare s Sonnets are of unequalled importance, for they are the only piece of his writing that we can be sure speaks to us directly from the heart of the great author about his own life. Unfortunately, although they tell us a great deal about his feelings, they don t tell us much of anything else. No one is identi- fied, not even the poet himself. We re given very little background detail and what he does give is for the most part far too general to assign a specific time or place with any certainty or to connect with any known event. In spite of this, or perhaps because of it, literally thousands of books have been written about the sonnets, and although many commentators stay away from any attempt to identify the personali- ties portrayed in them, or even when they were written, because, as one put it, it is a bog more easily got into than gotten out of, many have addressed it and in the process came up with a dizzying array of candidates and scenarios. Yet, despite the questions that still remain, most scholars willing to address the issue have agreed on a scenario based on a number of meticu- lous and convincing studies made in the first half of the twentieth century, which holds that all but a few of the sonnets were written over a period of five or six years, possibly beginning as early as 1589 or 90 and ending in 1595 or 96 (Akrigg 201 fn 2, 203 fn).
