Quanto guadagnava all’epoca uno scrittore famoso come Shakespeare dalle sue opere? Probabilmente era benestante, ma non particolarmente facoltoso. Robert Bearman, su Prospetc Magazine, prova a fare i conti in tasca al poeta e drammaturgo inglese.

Writing a proper biography of Shakespeare is virtually impossible given the shortage of hard data about him. Actually, it’s not that limited for someone who lived 400 years ago, and who never got significantly involved in the great lives of the great aristocratic and political families. The problem is that the information we have doesn’t throw much light on what sort of man Shakespeare was, or on the inner workings of his mind.
