Now, before exploring the rest of this site, how about trying to solve this fun no-prizes Shakespeare Quiz?
Quiz # 9: Now for another "Royal" flavoured quiz based on Shakespeare's history plays:
1) Who said the following to whom? Which king were they referring to?
"The king himself is to be feared as the lion."
2) What was the occasion when the following was said? Who said it to whom? Who was to become the next king?
"And now to London with triumphant march,
There to be crowned England's royal king."
3) Who didn't believe he would be the next king and said?
"To be king stands not within the prospect of belief."
Did he in fact become the next king?
4) Which king said,
"Not all the water in the rough rude sea
Can wash the balm from an anointed king."
5) Which king said,
"For God's sake let us sit upon the ground
And tell sad stories of the death of kings."
Why was he sad? How did he die?
Please send your answers to me via my Contacts page on this site or to: wsdavidyoung@gmail.com
Thank you and enjoy yourselves.
Note: Some of the answers to this quiz may be found in my books which appear elsewhere on this site which can be bought directly from the publisher or Amazon, Barnes & Noble etc.
Read my latest Shakespeare detective novel:
"Will the Real William Shakespeare Please Step Forward?"
Published by Vanguard Press/Pegasus Publishers. Also available from Amazon, B&N etc, in print or Kindle/ Nook
(ISBN: 9781843868491)
This is a detective novel about how four academics decide to solve the ever-current question: Did William Shakespeare, a young man from Stratford-upon-Avon, a small agricultural town one hundred miles away from London, really write the poems, plays and sonnets attributed to his name?
Could these great works have been written instead by a well-educated aristocrat who was too embarrassed to admit he was the author? Could these works have been written by a team of writers? Maybe some of them were even written by a woman! Perhaps his wife had a hand in them! Who knows?
You will if you read this detective novel and learn the truth to: Who really wrote William Shakespeare.
