Explore a fascinating theory about William Shakespeare’s early life with Arthur Gray’s insightful 1926 work, “A Chapter in the Early Life of Shakespeare: Polesworth in Arden.” Published by Cambridge University Press, this volume delves into the compelling possibility that the Bard spent his formative years at Polesworth Hall, nestled within the historic Forest of Arden. Discover how this vibrant cultural hub, home to Sir Henry Goodere and the renowned ‘Polesworth Circle,’ may have provided young Shakespeare with a crucial education and exposure to influential minds like poet Michael Drayton. If Gray’s hypothesis holds true, this period could have significantly shaped the young writer. A must-read for Shakespearean scholars and history enthusiasts on “The Bookish Owl”.
