Shakespeare is absolutely cool. One of the reasons for that is that you can find every kind of person you are likely to meet in Shakespeare's plays. Another reason is that very cool things happen in the plays: murders, supernatural visitations, sneaky plots, love affairs, women disguised as men, insanity, musicians singing songs, just for a start.

No, he did not. The word is ancient, and closely related to the word "cold". It goes back to Old English.


Why is the date of Shakespeare's death considered to be more of a romantic myth than reality?

Actually it is his birth date which is dubious, not his death date, which is carefully recorded on his funerary monument in Stratford church. Because he was baptised on April 26, people have thought for years that he was born on April 23 for two reasons: 1) because that is the date of his death, and wouldn't it be cool if it were the same day, and 2) because it is St. George's day and wouldn't it be cool if England's greatest writer were born on the day of England's patron saint? "Wouldn't it be cool" is not normally thought of as a legitimate argument unless it comes to Shakespeare. It is the same argument used to claim that the Cobbe portrait is actually of Shakespeare. Speaking of portraits, the Sanders portrait carries a label which according to every scientific test is a genuine sixteenth-century artifact and which gives Shakespeare's date of birth as April 23, 1564. This is actual evidence that Shakespeare actually was born on April 23 after all. How cool is that?


What you think about Shakespeare's audience?

I think they were very lucky. They got a chance to see the premieres of all of Shakespeare's plays, without any preconceptions about them. Nowadays any production of Hamlet is carrying 400 years of Hamlets on its back. Also, the audiences would have been able to see Shakespeare himself acting in the plays. How cool would that be?
