Podcast appearances and mentions of john shakespeare

Even William Shakespeare had to take out the garbage. In his hometown of Stratford Upon Avon, public waste was managed through a system of piles known as muck hills. In 1552, William Shakespeare's father, John Shakespeare, was charged a fine for one of these muck hills that was kept across the street from his home on Henley Street. For a long time, scholars have thought this fine meant that John Shakespeare was keeping the dung heap illegally, or perhaps using it inappropriately, but recent research into how muck hills operate and the history of public sanitation in Stratford Upon Avon have caused us to see this record of John Shakespeare in a new light. Here today to share with us how taking out the garbage worked for Shakespeare's lifetime is our guest, Elizabethan Tavares.   Get bonus episodes on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

William Shakespeare's mother, Mary, was Mary Arden before she married her husband, John Shakespeare. Mary's possible connection to the gentry Arden family has fascinated scholars and Shakespeare fans for many years. The Arden family was an established English gentry family in Warwickshire, and 1 of a handful of Tudor families in England who could trace their lineage back to the Anglo-Saxons. The family took their name from the Forest of Arden, used as a setting in Shakespeare's play, As You Like It. In 1583, when William Shakespeare was 19, the head of the family, Edward Arden was executed, having been convicted of treason. Here today to share with us more history about the Arden family and Edward in particular is our guest, Cathryn Enis.   Get bonus episodes on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

William Shakespeare's father, John Shakespeare, spent a great deal of time in trouble with the government over his illegal sale of wool. Several court documents show that John Shakespeare was investing in wool then selling it on to others. He didn't have a license to sell the wool, which is why he was so regularly in trouble. What the records of his dealings demonstrate is that the wool was valuable enough a commodity in England that John Shakespeare that he felt it was worth both the risk and the fines he had to pay, in order to deal in wool. Wool was one of England, and later the UK's, major exports, and Stratford Upon Avon, Shakespeare's hometown. was home to sheep farmers who produced the wool that could be sold internationally. In fact, some finished wool products like Monmouth caps, for example, were so well known for their quality, that they are even referenced by name in Shakespeare's play, Henry V, when Fluellen talks about wearing leeks in your Monmouth cap. Here today to tell us more about the wool industry, the farmers who were raising the sheep, products made of wool in the 16-17th century, and exactly why one should wear a leek inside your Monmouth cap, is our guest, Jane Malcolm-Davies.   Get bonus episodes on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

William Shakespeare’s father was a man named John Shakespeare. When you study William’s life you often hear about John Shakespeare, as many references to glove making in Shakespeare’s plays like the glover’s pairing knife in Merry Wives of Windsor come from an intimate knowledge with the glove making trade, which most assume came from William’s father John. When it comes to the life of John Shakespeare, however, the man was much more than a glover, having served also as an ale taster, alderman, and found himself embroiled in a great deal of legal and financial trouble that some historians believe contributed to our lack of records for Shakespeare’s grammar school days. To help us understand John Shakespeare better and explore the records we have of his life and how he came to be the father of the world’s greatest playwright, we welcome our guest, Bob Bearman, to tell us John’s story. 

Let’s take an imaginary trip to see the Birthplace, Anne Hathaway’s Cottage, farmland, Tudor schoolrooms, Dr. Hall’s house and medicinal garden, Tudor streets, Holy Trinity Church, a world-class theatre, and swans on the river. In other words, let’s go strolling through Stratford with Shakespeare!As you get off the train at the Stratford Station, you can wander through the city, seeing the Town Square, Henley Street, High Street, and more on your way towards the River Avon and the Visitor Information center. You get maps and buy tickets there, and the guides can help you plan your day. I’m going to take you through just some highlights of the wonders of Stratford by following the map—of course, you could easily plan different routes, as the town is easily walkable!Along the River you’ll also find the world-famous Royal Shakespeare Company. The RSC typically welcomes more than a million visitors each year. The RSC is the only theatre company with its own armory right on-site; they produce breastplates, gauntlets, and all kinds of weapons for use in productions and education activities. The RSC runs three theatres: The Royal Shakespeare Theatre and the Swan Theatre, which share a building next to the River, and The Other Place, which is a short walk away.Continue your walk along the River, and you’ll come to Holy Trinity Church. The church holds many treasures for its visitors including the Thomas Becket chapel; the Crossing; the Altar, which features a medieval stone altar slab; a King James Bible published in 1611 that is chained in place to prevent it being stolen; and, of course, Shakespeare.This is the church where Shakespeare’s family worshipped. He was baptized here on 26 April 1564. It’s very likely he worshipped here with his family as a child and a young man, and that he returned to this church when he retired to Stratford after his life in London. Finally, Shakespeare was buried here on 25 April 1616, after his death on 23 April. It’s very likely he worshipped here with his family as a child and a young man, and that he returned to this church when he retired to Stratford after his life in London. And, of course, Shakespeare was buried here on 25 April 1616, after his death on 23 April. Getting to Anne Hathaway’s Cottage takes a mile walk, and it's definitely worth it. The cottage is a 12-room farmhouse where Anne lived with her family as a child. There are some items in the Cottage that will take you right back in time. The Hathaway Bed was made between 1580 and 1650. The Tester Bed is dated to the late 1500s, so it is likely associated with Anne’s family. In fact, it would certainly have been known to Anne while she lived there. The cottage is surrounded by nine acres of woodland, orchards, and gardens. You can take a woodland walk, visit the Shakespeare arboretum, and relax in a willow cabin while you listen to Shakespeare’s sonnets. Head to Henley Street and you'll find Shakespeare’s Birthplace. This is a true highlight of your day, as you’ll be able to get up close and personal with William Shakespeare and his family. John Shakespeare lived and worked in this house for 50 years. He married Mary Arden and they had eight children there. In 1568, John became Mayor of Stratford, a status that enabled his son to attend the King Edward VI school and also brought troops of traveling players to his home so he could approve their performances before they played in the Town Square. It’s easy to imagine young Will meeting actors and learning about play-making while living there. Stratford offers the opportunity to walk in Shakespeare’s footsteps, to get close to rare objects from his lifetime, and to explore the ways Shakespeare continues to shape our lives today.

On this day in Tudor history, 8th September 1601, John Shakespeare, father of playwright William Shakespeare, was buried at Holy Trinity Church in Stratford-upon-Avon. John was a glover and whittawer, and also an important man in the town of Stratford-upon-Avon, serving as high bailiff, chief alderman and deputy bailiff, and being given the right to educate his children at the local grammar school for free. However, he also ran into trouble at times. Find out more about the life of William Shakespeare's father, John Shakespeare, in today's talk from historian Claire Ridgway. You can see this podcast as a video at the following link:https://youtu.be/7T5hcKhecYI Also on this day in Tudor history, 8th September 1560, the body of Amy Robsart, wife of Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, was found at the bottom of some stairs in her rented home, Cumnor Place in Oxfordshire. What had happened to Amy? Was her death a result of "misfortune", as decided by the coroner, or was it suicide or murder? Did Robert Dudley kill his wife? Did William Cecil kill Amy?

Hi, everybody! I am Georgiana, your English teacher and founder of SpeakEnglishPodcast.com. My mission is to help you speak English fluently. Today I'm gonna keep talking about William Shakespeare. Last week you learned some interesting facts about his life, so I will continue sharing some exciting facts about him. What else do we know about Shakespeare? Well, one thing is for sure. Shakespeare's life was anything but boring. Did you know that we're probably spelling Shakespeare's name wrong? We don't really know exactly how William Shakespeare wrote his name. There are almost 80 different versions of Shakespeare's name that appear in the records and other historical documents. You have to keep in mind that a lot of people were illiterate at that time. Let's learn some more about his life: His parents: His father's name was John Shakespeare, and he was a glove maker and leatherworker. His mother, Mary Arden, was an heiress from a rich family. His parents were probably illiterate, like many other people at the time. And, it's very likely they never learned to read or write, as was often the case with people in their position. Shakespeare had seven siblings: Joan who only lived two months; Margaret; Gilbert, another Joan, Anne; Richard and also Edmund. Did you know that William Shakespeare's Father Was Paid to Drink Beer? You might find this interesting, but John Shakespeare was appointed to one of the city's most important public offices: official beer taster. Another word for beer in English is ale. It may seem like a strange job today, but at the time, the ale tasting was an important and highly respected occupation.   Read the transcript here: speakenglishpodcast.com

 a history play by William Shakespeare, dramatises the reign of John, King of England (ruled 1199–1216), son of Henry II of England and Eleanor of Aquitaine and father of Henry III of England. It is believed to have been written in the mid-1590s but was not published until it appeared in the First Folio in 1623. John (24 December 1166 – 19 October 1216), also known as John Lackland or Softsword, was King of England from 6 April 1199 until his death. His reign saw the loss of the duchy of Normandy to the French king Philip II in 1204, resulting in the collapse of most of the Angevin Empire and the subsequent growth in the power of the Capetian dynasty over the rest of the 13th century. The baronial revolt at the end of John's reign saw the signing of the Magna Carta, a document often considered to be an early step in the evolution of the constitution of the United Kingdom. Contemporary chroniclers were mostly critical of John's performance as king, and his reign has since been subject to significant debate and periodic revision by historians from the 16th century onwards. Historian Jim Bradbury has summarised the contemporary historical opinion of John's positive qualities, observing that John is today usually considered a "hard-working administrator, an able man, an able general". Nonetheless, modern historians agree that he also had many faults as king, including what historian Ralph Turner describes as "distasteful, even dangerous personality traits", such as pettiness, spitefulness and cruelty. Popular representations of John first began to emerge during the Tudor period, mirroring the revisionist histories of the time. The anonymous play The Troublesome Reign of King John portrayed the king as a "proto-Protestant martyr", similar to that shown in John Bale's morality play Kynge Johan, in which John attempts to save England from the "evil agents of the Roman Church". By contrast, Shakespeare's play King John, whilst drawing on The Troublesome Reign for its source material and still relatively anti-Catholic, offers a more "balanced, dual view of a complex monarch as both a proto-Protestant victim of Rome's machinations and as a weak, selfishly motivated ruler --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/allthingsplantagenet/support

Live Performance by John Shakespeare

For years, historians have ruminated on the state of William Shakespeare’s father, John Shakespeare, and the financial troubles that were speculated to have caused the bard to leave Grammar School before graduation around age 14. Without any real substantial evidence to confirm or deny what actually happened to John Shakespeare, we have been left to wonder what, if any impact, these troubles had on the budding young playwright. Wondering, that is, until now. Dr. Glyn Parry has uncovered new documents that shed light on William Shakespeare’s early life and help us understand how some of Shakespeare’s political views might have formed. Glyn Parry is a professor of humanities at the University of Roehampton, a fellow of Royal Historical Society, a Member of the American Historical Association, and Member of the History of Science Society. His work focuses on Early modern magic, Shakespeare and his environment, and Tudor government in action. Glyn joins us today to explore the discovery of these new documents and explain how this new discovery offers an exciting glimpse into how young Shakespeare became the fiery political dramatist we know him as today.

This week we’ll get to it anon, search for sympathy, and bring in our crack legal team to dissect the newly found documents that show Will’s father John Shakespeare was harassed by Crown informers, which very well may have influenced Will’s attitude towards power and class (aka that dang gub’mint). www.noholdsbard.com noholdsbardpodcast@gmail.com patreon.com/NoHoldsBard @NoHoldsBardCast facebook.com/NoHoldsBardCast   Kevin Condardo c/o No Holds Bard P.O.
