SHAKSPER 1991: Blayney on Booksellers
From: Ken Steele (ksteele@epas.utoronto.ca) Date: 05/08/91
Shakespeare Electronic Conference, Vol. 2, No. 128. Wednesday, 8 May 1991. [I was flattered by the recent cross-posting of my review of Peter Blayney's *The First Folio of Shakespeare* from SHAKSPER to FICINO, and still more pleased that the cross-posting brought a few new SHAKSPEReans among us. The following response was generated on FICINO, and it seems appropriate to redistribute it here. I repeat my invitation to others to describe, however formally or informally they wish, their own recent reading in and around Shakespeare... -- k.s.] FROM: Ficino, 6 May 1991: Blayney on booksellers Date: Sun, 5 May 91 16:01 -0300 From: Daniel Woolf <WOOLF@AC.DAL.CA> Subject: Re: Ficino: review Those interested in Peter Blayney's work might be interested in the tour de force paper he give at the recent Shakespeare Association of America meetings in Vancouver last March. Using an impressive array of colour coded maps, he presented his case for knowing exactly where in Paul's churchyard all of the late 16th early 17th c. booksellers were, and the dimensions of their shops, using information about them from reconstruction plans after the Great Fire. This is to appear in print in the not too distant future. Daniel Woolf
