Subject:    Launch of Shakespeare Documented

 

The Folger Shakespeare Library is delighted to announce the launch of Shakespeare Documented (www.shakespearedocumented.org). This online exhibition includes images, descriptions, and transcriptions of all known references and allusions to Shakespeare and his works during his lifetime and shortly thereafter. 

 

Shakespeare Documented complements the Folger’s current exhibition, “Shakespeare, Life of an Icon,” by including all items that appear in the exhibition, and about 350 items that aren’t included. These items were contributed by over 30 institutions in the U.S. and U.K. 

 

A few highlights: 

The exhibition was curated by Heather Wolfe, coordinated by Claire Dapkiewicz, and overseen by Eric Johnson, with a host of other Folger staff members and external contributors

 

Please explore the site, and share it far and wide with your friends and colleagues. 

 

Regards,

The Shakespeare Documented Team
