Who Were Shakespeare's Friends? The Stratford Circle

Shakespeare left remarkably few personal documents, but we can learn a great deal about him from the people he knew. In this video I look at Shakespeare's Stratford friends and ...neighbours - Richard Quiney, Thomas Greene, Richard Field and others - and what their lives tell us about the world Shakespeare grew up in, his education, and the links between his Stratford connections and the London literary scene. Based in part on Kate Pogue's book Shakespeare's Friends.
