The Shakespeare and Medieval Page

 

Since I was a child I have loved the Medieval time period but it wasn't till I was older that I started to study it.  In that time, I also fell in love with Shakespeare so this is my page dedicated to the Middle Ages, Shakespeare, and to traditional folk music from Ireland, Scotland, and England.  There is a wealth of information so dig in and e-mail me with any comments you might have. 

Here is the Featured Shakespeare quote:

All the world's a stage

And all the men and women merely players

They have their exits and their entrances;

And one man in his time plays many parts

His acts being seven ages.............
