As you know I am no big fan of Shakespeare, but lately I seem to be falling over him whatever I look at. It is just plain weird that there is not a shred of anything to prove he existed. I am wondering if they bundled up all the writings and buried it in the grave instead of a body. When John Dee died they rushed in to burn his books. The way his contemporaries speak of him is completely unlike the way they describe others. Cannot believe that there are no portraits, and still think his money lending family is played down.His father was still in London by the look of it, even in Plague times.
Have you seen the BBC site :- 'Shakespeare 2016 On Tour ?
First time I knew he had brothers.
