ISBN-13: 9781584774396; ISBN-10: 1584774398. Devecmon, William C. In Re Shakespeare's "Legal Acquirements": Notes by an Unbeliever Therein. Originally published: New York: The Shakespeare Press, 1899. iii, 51 pp. Reprinted 2005 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584774396; ISBN-10: 1584774398. Hardcover. New. $23.95 * The large number of sophisticated legal references in Shakespeare's work and his association with the Inns of Court led many to conclude that he was once a barrister, clerk or law student. This idea took root in the late eighteenth century and reached fruition in such works as Shakespeare A Lawyer (1858) by William L. Rushton and Shakespeare's Legal Acquirements Considered (1859) by John Campbell (both are available as Lawbook Exchange reprints). Devecmon refutes this view, arguing that the Bard's knowledge was that of a well-read layman. "Mr. Devecmon boldly announces himself a disbeliever in the lawyer theory, and his little book is a strong argument on that side. It shows careful research, is written in terse, vigorous style, and exhibits much legal learning." 60 Albany Law Journal 241 1899-1900.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores whether renowned playwright William Shakespeare's astute use of legal language throughout his plays and poems was the result of a formal legal education or was simply gleaned from his environment. The author meticulously deconstructs the legalisms employed by Shakespeare, offering an in-depth analysis of their context and accuracy. Expanding on previous research, this book takes a critical look at the highly debated theory that Shakespeare himself was a lawyer, presenting a compelling case against the idea that his legal knowledge extended beyond a layman's understanding. Through a rigorous examination of the historical and literary landscape of Shakespeare's era, the author sheds new light on the playwright's relationship with the legal profession and its profound influence on his work, ultimately providing valuable insights into the creative process of one of literature's greatest minds. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - In ''Re Shakespeareżżżżżżżs Legal Acquirements: Notes By An Unbeliever Therein'' (1899), author William C. Devecmon presents a critical analysis of William Shakespeare's legal knowledge and expertise. Devecmon argues that Shakespeare could not have possessed the legal knowledge necessary to write about legal matters in his plays, and suggests that Shakespeare may have relied on legal advisors or sources for his plays. The book includes detailed notes and references to legal terminology and concepts used in Shakespeare's plays, as well as historical and literary analysis. Devecmon's work is considered a valuable contribution to the ongoing debate over Shakespeare's authorship and the extent of his legal knowledge.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
