Thank you Sir for telling us the routes of these famous sentences. 🙏 From India.
You are welcome! As you can see, we can do our own basic “research” into these words and expressions of Shakespeare’s using the EEBO TCP database: https://quod.lib.umich.edu/e/eebogroup/ Try it and see what you can find out!
@anosensei thank you sir; the source would be a great help for finding the history of the famous lines. This will also guide us to know about the authors who actually had helped a person to become a famous author. Where library genesis gives us texts , this will give us timelines of iconic expressions. So, sir thank you again for this video.
@asimpleman5524 I’m delighted to have had the opportunity to introduce people to this wonderful database. I hope you will gain many treasures from it!
@anosensei sure 😊
