Can you post an example or provide a link? Not off hand, but web-search "William, Shakespeare, biography" should turn something up. Shakespeare was the biggest thing in the literature of England at the time when corresponding French stage writing was crap (don't know about the rest of Europe in 16thC). There are very few extant pictures of him, and all come from the same 2 or 3 drawings, so you will soon see what I mean if you find a pic. -- Dave Bird, an official ARS HakeMonger ><_'> <_" (licensed to mung pelagic fish and clams of all kinds upon the Internet) "If turbot be the food of hate, Lay on MacErrel and, by damn, Cry HADDOCK and let loose the cods of war!"
