Episode 2: What’s Really Shaking?

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

Between the years of 1585- 1592, Shakespeare disappears from public record. With the exception of his twin's baptism in 1585, and a land dispute court document in 1589 there is very little to the man from Stratford's life. These "lost years" are where many of the theories behind the "authorship question" begin. In episode 2, we explore some of those theories, what may have happened in those missing years, and how that period of his life helped shape him into the playwright he would become.
