Comment:        Re: SHK 15.2046 Dates in Shakespeare

My charming spouse is the "author" of an annual calendar, The Book of
Fictional Days; the only non-historical date (besides Juliet's birthday)
that we've come across in the plays is July 6, which is the day that Don
Pedro et al. arrive in Messina in Much Ado About Nothing. (If you're
interested in the calendar and your local bookstore doesn't carry it,
you can find it at http://www1.twincitizen.net/~gordon/.)
