Présentation de l'éditeur

Shakspebb s Parents, Boyhood, Education, Marriage and Departure from Stratford Near the centre, the heart, of England, in one of those Midland shires that gave Britain its standard speech, was the most famous user of that speech, William Shakspere, the worlds greatest poet, born. Warwickshire was his coimty, Stratford-upon-A von his birthtown :W arwickshire, famed for its legends of Sir Guy and Bembrun ;its castles, Warwick and Kenilworth; its ancient Coventry of Guilds and Mystery-plays; its battlefield of Edgehill; its Kingmaker, Warwick; its rolling hills and vales; Stratford-upon-A von, famous alone as having given birth to Shakspere. The town lies on the river A von, there navigable; and just as the 1O nr Warwick-shire the Heart of England is. 165 Sir Aston Ck kain, to Dugdale. After Shakspere stime. Ootober 28, 1642. See the deaoription in Oraphic JU ustrc Uiona of Warwicks Mrtt pp. 8-9. Warwickshire is also the county of one who was often calld England s Shakspere among nove Usts, the late George Eliot (M rs. J.

This spelling of oar great poets name is taken from the only anqaestionably gennine signatares of his that we possess, the three on his will, and the two on his Blackfrlars oonveyanoe and mortgage. None of these signatares has ane after the k; three have no a after the first t; the fifth I read eere, or ere. The a ande had their French Boands, which explain the forms Shaxper, c. Though it has hitherto been too much to ask people to suppose that Shakspere knew how to spell his own name, I hope the demand may not prove too great for the imagination of my readers.
