Zusammenfassung: | A microhistory of London's St Helen's Parish, revealing the lives of Shakespeare's neighboursIn the 1590s, Shakespeare was working with and writing for the Lord Chamberlain's Men at The Theatre, Shoreditch while he was living in the parish of St. Helen's, Bishopsgate Street. Living with Shakespeare examines his parish, church, locale, neighbours and their potential influences on his writing--from the radical 'Paracelsian' doctors, musicians and public figures--to the international merchants who lived nearby. Packed with new discoveries from difficult-to-access manuscript records this book reveals the parish's complex social, religious, political and neighbourly intersections and influences.Taking a section of Shakespeare's life, (c. 1593-1598), as he evolved from new 'arriviste' in London to established theatre professional, the book examines the 100 or so families who lived in his parish and demonstrates how their interests, work and connections formed part of the background environment that Shakespeare probably borrowed from as he reworked existing stories. These people form a fascinating story, which sheds new light on the influences that shaped a great writer as he finished Romeo & Juliet, A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Merchant of Venice and began to re-establish his family name, status and reputation.Marsh's ability to weave primary research and discoveries together with historical narratives, transports readers into Shakespeare's world and allows them a real glimpse into his daily life.Key FeaturesIdentifies Shakespeare's home in London during the 1590sPresents primary research based on unpublished documents including lay subsidy rolls, leases, indentures, legal records, tithe records, census returns for 'strangers', wills, letters, records of births, marriages and deaths and may moreProvides compelling evidence of how certain kinds of information was readily available to Shakespeare at a critical juncture in his lifeDemonstrates he lived next door to two Paracelsian doctors trained in Padua and Germany, |

Living with Shakespeare examines his parish, church, locale, neighbours and their potential influences on his writing--from the radical 'Paracelsian' doctors, musicians and public figures--to the international merchants who lived nearby. Packed with new discoveries from difficult-to-access manuscript records this book reveals the parish's complex social, religious, political and neighbourly intersections and influences.Taking a section of Shakespeare's life, (c. 1593-1598), as he evolved from new 'arriviste' in London to established theatre professional, the book examines the 100 or so families who lived in his parish and demonstrates how their interests, work and connections formed part of the background environment that Shakespeare probably borrowed from as he reworked existing stories. These people form a fascinating story, which sheds new light on the influences that shaped a great writer as he finished Romeo & Juliet, A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Merchant of Venice and began to re-establish his family name, status and reputation.Marsh's ability to weave primary research and discoveries together with historical narratives, transports readers into Shakespeare's world and allows them a real glimpse into his daily life.Key FeaturesIdentifies Shakespeare's home in London during the 1590sPresents primary research based on unpublished documents including lay subsidy rolls, leases, indentures, legal records, tithe records, census returns for 'strangers', wills, letters, records of births, marriages and deaths and may moreProvides compelling evidence of how certain kinds of information was readily available to Shakespeare at a critical juncture in his lifeDemonstrates he lived next door to two Paracelsian doctors trained in Padua and Germany, Shakespeare, William 1564-1616 (DE-588)118613723 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1593-1598 gnd rswk-swf Literary Studies ART / History / Renaissance bisacsh Parishes England London History 16th century Zeithintergrund (DE-588)4128644-3 gnd rswk-swf Saint Helen Bishopsgate London (DE-588)1054106924 gnd rswk-swf Shakespeare, William 1564-1616 (DE-588)118613723 p Saint Helen Bishopsgate London (DE-588)1054106924 g Zeithintergrund (DE-588)4128644-3 s Geschichte 1593-1598 z DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 978-1-4744-7972-1 https://doi.org/10.1515/9781474479738 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
