'Good friend, for
Jesu's
sake forbear
To dig the dust enclosed here.
Blessed be the man who spares these stones
And cursed be he that moves my bones.'
The words carved on Shakespeare's gravestone in
Holy Trinity Church, Stratford, seem to repel
attempts to disinter or reanimate him. The claim
that virtually nothing is known about his life has
been used to support a Romantic view of
Shakespeare as free-standing genius in lofty iso¬
lation from the mundane doings of the
Renaissance world. In fact, as this compelling
and challenging study confirms, a substantial
body of records bears witness to material aspects
of the dramatist's life from baptism to burial and
with much in between. There are also many con¬
temporary allusions both to Shakespeare as play¬
er and poet and to his writings.
Yet this material casts little immediate light on
the more personal questions asked by today's
readers.
Katherine
Duncan-Jones has set out to
write a different kind of life of Shakespeare, both
by exploring areas that other biographers have
neglected, and by looking afresh at many familiar
documents and episodes. As she says, 'I quite
often risk conjecture, in the hope of putting some
spectral, if speculative, flesh on those well-guarded
bones'. She sheds new light on such matters as
the ill-fated grant of a coat of arms to
Shakespeare, and the much debated Will, with
its bequest to his wife of his 'second-best bed'.
She shows the dramatist as a man among men
and a writer among writers. This Shakespeare lives
in a congested city, where he encounters disease,
debt and cut-throat competition. His brilliance
often makes him the object of envy and malice
rather than adulation. He is a shrewd purchaser
of property in his home town, but unlike other
local worthies, or his actor-contemporary Edward
Alleyn, shows no inclination to divert any of his
wealth towards charitable, neighbourly or altru¬
istic ends. He appears to be more interested in
relationships with well-born young men than
with women.
Rather than chronicling each recorded event,
play or poem, Duncan-Jones identifies topics and
issues associated with particular phases of
Shakespeare's life, weaving them into a complex
narrative which brilliantly carries the reader
through the complexities of life in late Elizabethan
and early Jacobean England. A key element
throughout is her analysis of Shakespeare's deal¬
ings with fellow writers with whom he both col¬
laborated and competed.
If Duncan-Jones's portrait is of a not-so-sweet
Master Shakespeare, she is nevertheless alive to
his inexhaustible capacity to please and astonish.
She combines original and unusual critical
insights with deep knowledge of the period and
imaginative human understanding to create an
engaging and witty study which gives a vivid
sense of the tough, competitive life of an actor
and playwright in Shakespeare's England.
grew up in the
Midlands. She is the author of Sir Philip Sidney:
Courtier Poet
(1991)
and of the
Arden
3
edition
of Shakespeare's Sonnets
(1997).
She has published
more than forty articles on Elizabethan and
Jacobean literature and about a hundred theatre
reviews. She is a Fellow of Somerville College,
Oxford, a Fellow of the Royal Society of
Literature and an Honorary Research Fellow
of University College, London. |
