ISBN: 9781350409354 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In the wide realm of Shakespeare worship, the house in Stratford-upon-Avon where William Shakespeare was born in 1564 – known colloquially as the ‘Birthplace’ – remains the chief shrine. It’s not as romantic as Anne Hathaway’s thatched cottage, it’s not where he wrote any of his plays, and there’s nothing inside the house that once belonged to Shakespeare himself.

Not Shakespeare: Bardolatry and Burlesque in the Nineteenth Century
ISBN: 9780521031523 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Burlesque has been a powerful and enduring weapon in the critique of legitimate Shakespearean culture by a seemingly illegitimate popular culture, particularly in the nineteenth century.
