        William Shakespeare Facts

Since April 26th is the closest date authoritative sources have come to
zeroing in on Shakespeare's birthday --there's a baptismal record for this
date -- today's web page offers an engaging collection of trivia about the
most famous English writer. Gentle Subscribers will find an interesting
miscellany of historical facts, both well-known and obscure.

"Trivia about the world's most famous playwright. ...William Shakespeare
facts are few and far between. While we know alot about the playwright's
works, Shakespeare facts concerning the Bard's personal life are less
forthcoming." - from the website

The web page provides snippets of enjoyable trivia, ranging from a
surprising disposition in Shakespeare's will to the still bothersome
problem of copyright infringement. Under the "Trivia" heading on the left
of the page, will be found additional sections featuring a timeline, an
FAQ, information about the Globe Theatre and the always controversial
"authorship" problem.
