The Fall in the Garden of England: Shakespeare in the Descent into Civil War
Dr. Ralph Williams, Professor Emeritus
Dr. Williams will talk about the time in the 1590's that Shakespeare was in London and the country had the potential to evolve into civil war. Shakespeare retrojected into the issues of the War of the Roses a century and a half earlier and wrote a series of 8 plays. This lecture will base itself on his History plays and explore his chilling insights.
