King Richard III & The Why behind Shakespeare

 

Last week we announced a new article in the BBC History Magazine about King “Richard III. Why Shakespeare made him a Devil”.

 

Maria Grazia already had a chance to get to the article and posted a detailed review on her blog Fly High. She also links to an interesting background interview with the author of the article, Dr. Paulina Kewes, teaching at the Jesus College in Oxford, which is published as podcast by BBC History Magazine as further background to the magazine article.

 

 


 

 

CDoart on her blog continues doing fan-artwork by creating a new ‘King Richard Armitage’.
