Shakespeare monkeys hit all my geek buttons. Shakespeare, programming, data analysis, and MONKEYS. Yes, monkeys can type all of Shakespeare's works. But, as Jesse Anderson says, in what order?

Voracious reader with a certain verbal attitude. In which I get frustrated and plead with authors. Posted November 30, 2009. Filed under: book thoughts. You’re on notice, authors. You are totally harshing my winter-is-here-curl-up-and-read-a-lot mellow and it has got to stop. How? I’m so glad you asked! I’ve been thinking about writing this for awhile, especially ever since I read. Have I mentioned race in my book at any point? If so, then. Have I mentioned the race of my protagonist? And while you’re at...

PARDO CULTURE: Why Shakespeare Isn't Shakespeare: Shinies as Evidence
http://sarah-pardoculture.blogspot.com/2011/10/normal-0-false-false-false-en-us-ja-x.html
Why Shakespeare Isn't Shakespeare: Shinies as Evidence. Last time we talked about shinies, little goodies that are not necessary to the plot.

Why Shakespeare Isn't Shakespeare: Evidence 2. To find these mismatches is a book called Shakespeare by Another Name,. By Mark Anderson. (Full disclosure: I read the book pre-publication and am mentioned in it.) Ten years in the writing, Shakespeare by Another Name. Is almost 600 pages long, and a full third of those pages are footnotes. To take only a few of the shiny little details that appear in Shakespeare's Italian plays, Anderson mentions:. The nasal dialect of Padua. A mural (also by Romano) in th...
