Shakespeare Himself His Work PDF Download

Excerpt from Shakespeare, Himself and His Work: A Biographical Study Wm the preoent volume originally appeared in 1908, it was not intended to form more than an Essay or a Sketch, almost exclusively limited to new facts or new arguments. The reduction of the matter to type shewed me what I had been able to accomplish, and what I had left undone; and during the last five years it has been one of my favourite employments to develop, the original effort into something more nearly resembling 9. Biography. I had a most imper feet idea, when I started, of the state of information and knowledge on the subject; but, independently of a succes sion of new lights, for an ignorance of which earlier workers were obviously not responsible, the long familiar incidents of the life of the poet, sparing as they were, have more frequently than not been misrepresented. In other words, the personal history of Shakespear was rendered even less clear than it might have been, and I now attempt to put on a better footing the new treatment of the question, which came from my pen in the first instance.
