New old book found
7 April 2016
You can hardly avoid Hertford’s Emma Smith in the media today: she has been involved in authenticating the newest discovery of a Shakespeare First Folio, in the collection at Mount Stuart house on the Isle of Bute.
The Shakespeare First Folio was published in 1623 and contains 36 plays by Shakespeare, half of them printed for the first time. You can read more about it on the BBC website and more detail about the book at the TLS – or join the Warnock Society and hear her talk about it next month at the annual lunch in Hertford.
