We believe that to understand Shakespeare’s relevance today, we must understand the journey his texts have travelled through the years. Join us as we dive into the theaters, museums, and archives to discover that journey for ourselves. Feel free to contact me at ripegoodscholar@gmail.com

The Shakespeare Apocrypha

Monday Feb 14, 2022
Hello and welcome to episode 43 of Ripe Good Scholar. Ever since Shakespeare started gaining popularity, people have been attributing plays to him that he may not have had anything to do with. Some of these have been easier to disprove than others. There are a few lingering plays that we cannot say whether Shakespeare had a hand in and so we have The Shakespeare Apocrypha. Things get much more complicated as we dive deeper into what it meant to be a playwright in Shakespeare’s time. There was a lot of collaboration, stealing, and editing. This can make it nearly impossible to determine who was the author. But, that won’t stop us from speculating!
