EBarnacle Folklore: Shakespeare as addressed by Gloriana (16) RE: Folklore: Shakespeare as addressed by Gloriana 08 Aug 17

Gloriana was one of Elizabeth's nicknames.

The Elizabeth letter dates from when WS was 12 years old. There are other contemporary letters in the archive which I have offered to help conserve. At first glance none of them mention WS.

Jack, I wrote about Falstaff, not Macbeth. The religious and political situation in Merrye Olde was such that there was massive Catholic subversion as well as several attempts to overthrow Elizabeth. It was not a pleasant time to be a dissenter.
