A Groatsworth of Wit
Manage episode 302781159 series 2536397
Hello and welcome to Ripe Good Scholar. One of the first written references to Shakespeare in the London Theater scene is a pamphlet written by Robert Greene on his deathbed, A Groatsworth of Wit. In it, he warns his fellow playwrights to beware of this “upstart crow” who was coming in to steal their glory. These Shakespeare references are why the pamphlet is so well known today, but there is so much more to it than that. There is a story, a peek into the inner world of Elizabethan theater and some insults so damning that the editor had to issue an apology. It’s a compelling pamphlet for all those reasons and more which is why we will be exploring it today.
For this episode I read A Groatsworth of Wit, modernized by Nina Green, along with several other articles. If you want to check out those and so much more, head over to ripegoodscholar.com/ep37.
