Episode 1: Authorship

from Will: What Is He Good For? · host Classics on the Rocks

The question surrounding whether or not the man from Stratford-Upon-Avon, known as William Shakespeare, really wrote his plays, or more commonly known as the “authorship question” is a weird one. People will twist themselves into knots to discredit Shakespeare and justify alternative theories. However, if you follow the arc of his life, there is evidence that he is who he is and he did write his plays. In our first episode, we take a look at how Shakespeare's early life laid the groundwork for some of history's greatest playwriting.
