Opis

This book presents original material which indicates that Aemilia Lanyer - female writer, feminist, and Shakespeare contemporary - is Shakespeare’s hidden and arguably most significant co-author. Once dismissed as the mere paramour of Shakespeare’s patron, Lord Hunsdon, she is demonstrated to be a most articulate forerunner of #MeToo fury.
