John Shakespeare

John Shakespeare (c. 1531 – 7 September 1601) was the father of William Shakespeare. He was the son of Richard Shakespeare of Snitterfield, a farmer. He moved to Stratford-upon-Avon and married Mary Arden, with whom he had eight children, five of whom survived into adulthood. A well-to-do glover and whittawer (leather worker) by trade, Shakespeare was a dealer in hides and wool, and was elected to several municipal offices, serving as an alderman and culminating in a term as bailiff, the chief magistrate of the town council, before he fell on hard times for reasons unknown to historians. His fortunes later revived after the success of his son, and he was granted a coat of arms five years before his death, probably at the instigation and expense of his playwright son.

Career and municipal responsibilities

John Shakespeare moved to Stratford-upon-Avon in 1551, where he became a successful businessman involved in several related occupations. From 1556 to 1592, several official records identify him as a glovemaker, which was probably his primary trade, as tradition remembers him as following that trade even into his old age, but the records of his real estate purchases and legal expenses indicate an income much higher than that of a small-town tradesman. The administration of his father's estate in 1561 names him as a farmer. He inherited and leased agricultural lands and is on record as selling timber and barley. Court records also document him as a "brogger", an unlicensed—and therefore illegal—wool dealer. In addition, he bought and leased out houses. He was twice taken to court for violating the usury laws that prohibited charging interest higher than the legal limit of 10 percent.

Five 400-Year-Old Encryptions by John Dee Reveal the Author of Shakespeare's Works

Four centuries ago, five texts concerning William Shakespeare were encrypted by Renaissance polymath Dr. John Dee: the front matter of Shake-Speare's Sonnets, the Shakespeare funerary monument at Stratford, the gravestone at Stratford, and the poems by Ben Jonson and Hugh Holland in Shakespeare's First Folio of 1623. I discovered Dee's name encoded three times in each text and demonstrate that his signatures do not occur randomly. They form an essential part of the cryptograms' infrastructure. Each signature is positioned to demarcate the messages concealed within the works. The messages repeatedly state that the author of Shakespeare's works was Edward de Vere and the grace of God within him.

There Hasn't Been a Better Film in 30 Years

A video essay about William Shakespeare’s Hamlet (1996). Kenneth Branagh’s extraordinary adaptation of the greatest play ever written and perhaps the highest achievement of the English language. //Join me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Moviewise //Follow me on Twitter: https://x.com/MrMoviewise //Read David Bordwell’s brief opinion on the film: https://www.davidbordwell.net/blog/2008/04/ Whenever asked what’s my favorite movie, instead of balking and saying there are too many to choose from in that famous cop out, I always answer Kenneth Branagh’s Hamlet.

Shakespeare Sonnet 126 - O thou, my lovely boy, who in thy power

My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/hakonsoreide As I've got more into poetry reading again, I decided to do Shakespeare's sonnets, all 154 of them. Usually Shakespeare's sonnets are presented out of order and context, but many of them are even clearly intended to be read together, and so it makes sense to do every single one. Many of them have slightly ambiguous or inconsistent rhythm, making them more difficult to read and opening them up to some rhythmic interpretation. Just like the sonnets themselves are not perfect, nor will my reading of them be.
