BOOK INFO: 'The attempt to discover the man Shakespeare in what he has written is never a fruitless search, for the means by which it is prosecuted is a careful study and thorough understanding of his works. But if a definite result is to be attained there must be called in aid such information as may be obtained from the men among whom Shakespeare lived, moved and had his being. What has been collected in these pages may be no more, here and there, 'a light occasion, a word, or some sport,' but these things may serve to make the man's 'naturall dispositions and maners appeare more plaine than' his most famous achievements ; his Hamlet, his Lear, his Othello, and his As You Like It.' (~from the introduction). Contents include, Introduction.--Edmund Spenser.--The players.--The university pens.--Ben Jonson.--Christopher Marlowe.--Family and friends.--Index. Also published in London : Smith, Elder, 1916. Shakespeare, William, 1564-1616--Friends and associates, Shakespeare, William, 1564-1616--Contemporaries
