Infos

Did you know Shakespeare is the most filmed author of all time: he s been credited on more than 1,000 movies and TV shows. Obscene , gloomy , fashionable and generous are among the countless new words that Shakespeare introduced. (Actually, countless is one of his too.) It s also because of the Bard that we say catch a cold , naked truth and green-eyed monster . Almost all the moons of Uranus are named after characters from Shakespeare, including Titania, Oberon and Puck? For further fascinating insights, dive into this masterful miscellany and become a Shakespeare buff. There s never been a better time to take a fresh look at William Shakespeare s eternal works. A treasure trove of wit, imagination and emotion, his plays and poems continue to surprise, inspire, console and delight us. Whether you re a lifelong lover of the Bard or a curious newcomer to his world, this companion will lift the curtain on the unforgettable characters and stories of Britain s greatest dramatist.
