34、 the name of Shakespeares birthplace, Stratfbrd-upon-Avon). They (hink that Shakespeare simply was not educated enough or from a high enough social class to have written plays with such a wide range of subjects like history and international culture. Shakespeare was the son of a glove-maker. He only

This allowed people to read about life and ideas throughout Europe. One neednt travel the continent to learn and write about its
