Will le magnifique

Greenblatt, Stephen 1943- (author.). Béru, Marie-Anne de, (translator.).

Summary: The book investigates the mentality of a man between the Middle Ages and Renaissance, between custom and modernity. The author examines how the provincial young William Shakespeare, without neither social connections nor education, was able to come to London in the 1580s and in a short time become the greatest playwright of his age.
