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his daily life.Key FeaturesIdentifies Shakespeare’s home in London during the 1590sPresents primary research based on unpublished documents including lay subsidy rolls, leases, indentures, legal records, tithe records, census returns for ‘strangers’, wills, letters, records of births,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, potentially answering long-asked questionsPlaces Shakespeare alongside his immediate neighbours, presenting us with a more complete picture of the ways in which his social circle and level of wealth intersected at this timeReveals the interconnections of St. Helen's - a high status London parishProvides significant new interpretation of the evolution of Elizabethean theatrePresents a clash over London witchcraft trials c. 1599-1605 with new and significant interpretationsIdentifies the origins of British Empire and spread of English by providing a new perspective from a London parish, where one of the most prestigious addresses in the 1590s was being used c. 1629 for sugar refining Mode of access: Internet via World Wide Web.

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, potentially answering long-asked questionsPlaces Shakespeare alongside his immediate neighbours, presenting us with a more complete picture of the ways in which his social circle and level of wealth intersected at this timeReveals the interconnections of St. Helen's - a high status London parishProvides significant new interpretation of the evolution of Elizabethean theatrePresents a clash over London witchcraft trials c. 1599-1605 with new and significant interpretationsIdentifies the origins of British Empire and spread of English by providing a new perspective from a London parish, where one of the most prestigious addresses in the 1590s was being used c. 1629 for sugar refining</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="538" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Mode of access: Internet via World Wide Web.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">In English.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="588" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (publisher's Web site, viewed 01.
