A Chronicle History of the Life and Work of William Shakespeare

Note 3 — SECTION II.

Reading edition

The reader should especially beware of a most absurd identification of Shakespeare with the Crispinus of Jonson's Poetaster, recently put forth by Mr. J. Feis in his Shakspere and Montaigne. It is a pity that an essay, of which the first four chapters are so valuable, should be disfigured by the palpable chronological and other blunders in the latter portions of the volume.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
