Description
William Shakespeare (1564–1616), long considered the greatest of English writers, left few traces of his handwriting. The banned play Sir Thomas More (1595) was written and revised by five different playwrights, of whom scholars now believe Shakespeare to be one. The handwritten manuscript on this Paperblanks journal cover portrays his passionate defence of refugees and displaced people.
