In "1601" Queen Elizabeth, Shakespeare, Ben Jonson, Sir Walter Raleigh, and other luminaries of the period are pictured sitting about the fireplace amusing one another with risque tales. In "Is Shakespeare dead?", Twain tries to come to terms with his conflicting responses to Shakespeare as mentor and muse. |
