Reviews

Professor Hildegard's study must now be an integral part of the obligatory Shakespeare's corpus of scholarship. Her book is beautifully written and presented, a brilliant academic study which can also be thoroughly enjoyed by any layperson. Professor Hildegard is to be congratulated on an outstanding achievement, it is ground-breaking and brings into sharper focus one of the world's greatest poets. This book must be regarded as compulsory reading for all who wish to acquaint themselves more closely with the elusive personality of William Shakespeare. -- Dr. Paul Doherty, headmaster, Trinity School, London
