[Diese] aufwändige Bildbiographie hat es innerhalb weniger Wochen Prof. Hammerschmidt-Hummel’s study … reads like a mystery story. What indeed makes it gripping, is the fact that the author … moves from one nested hypothesis to the next, to explain biographical events as well as features of the works, which had been hitherto incomprehensible. The hard evidence she presents in the form of historical documentation supports each of the hypotheses |

Prof. Kurt Otten, Anglistik – International Journal of English Studies … a fascinating account of Shakespeare’s life and times, when religion was the central issue. Prof. Peter Milward, Renaissance Bulletin (Tokyo) This book has all the full-colour visual panache of a coffee-table book and all the solid gravitas of exceptional scholarship.
