Some professors celebrate Shakespeare's birthday by bringing cake or other treats to their early modern classes; I had the pleasure of bringing both Gillian Knoll and Joseph Gamble (virtually) to mine today for a brilliant discussion on their work in kink studies! #HappyBirthdayShakespeare

A bust portrait in red and black chalk of Ellen Terry (1847-1928) is, according to the text on the Karen Taylor webpage, “portrayed against a background of blossom. Her hair is pinned behind and she wears a blouse with a frilled collar and a knotted scarf. The background, costume and pose bear a strong resemblance to other portraits of Terry as Ophelia.”

It is my birth-day:
I had thought to have held it poor: but, since my lord
Is Antony again, I will be Cleopatra.

To me, fair friend, you never can be old,
For as you were when first your eye I eyed,
Such seems your beauty still.

HENSLOWE: It was no Titus Andronicus. But it had done decently at Newington Butts.

HEMINGES: We thought Shakespeare might spruce it up.

SHAKESPEARE: I thought it was a bad idea. Revenge tragedies were like so 1580s.

SONNET 116 Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no; it is an ever-fixed mark,  That looks on...

“If this be error and upon me proved,
   I never writ, nor no man ever loved.”
