Book excerpt: "Let's talk of graves, of worms, and epitaphs" is the motto of this Essay, and accordingly we accept the author's challenge and proceed to consider his suggestion that Shakespeare's grave should be opened and an examination made of any remains that may be discovered therein. In support of his proposals, Dr. Ingleby urges that three desirable results would be obtained: first, it would be ascertained whether the tomb has been already rifled; secondly, an examination of the remains might enable us to decide several points, such as the authenticity of the bust and the various portraits of Shakespeare, and, we may add, the uncertainty as to his lameness, while phrenological measurements of the skull might settle almost beyond dispute the possibility of Shakespeare's having been the author of Shakespeare's Plays; thirdly, the full satisfaction of all curiosity would prevent future desecration by rendering it unnecessary and unprofitable, and would further prevent the circulation in the future of remains falsely pretending to be genuine relics of the great dead. The doubtful authenticity of the supposed skull of Cromwell is a case in point, and Dr. Ingleby refers to it, and also gives a long account of the strange experiences of Schiller's remains before they found their last resting place. The remains of Raphael and of Charles I have been disinterred to settle historical doubts, and the supposed bodies of Cromwell and Milton were exhibited in contempt to the populace; but Dr. Ingleby considers that in both these latter cases the perpetrators of the outrage were baffled, and that Milton still lies undisturbed in the chancel of St. Giles', Cripplegate, while the great Protector mingles with the dust in an unknown grave on Naseby Field. Apart from the general sentiment which naturally prevails against disturbing the dead in their resting place, the chief objection in Shakespeare's case lies in the four lines inscribed upon his gravestone- Good friend for Iesus sake forbeare, To digg the dust encloased here; Bleste be the man that spares these stones, And curst be he that moves my bones- The meaning of these lines seems clear enough, but Dr. Ingleby very ingeniously argues that they only express Shakespeare's dread lest his remains should be conveyed to the charnel-house hard by, thus explaining 'moves' as 'removes.' He does not discuss whether Shakespeare was the author of the verse, which is almost identical with some lines in the epitaph of Thomas and Margaret Huntbach, at Shustoke. The Essay concludes with a short account of all the Shakespeare Portraits whose title merits the least consideration, and appended is "A Bibliography of the Exhumation Question as affecting Shakespeare's bones." Readers will, no doubt, differ as to Dr. Ingleby's conclusions, but there can only be one opinion as to the value and interest of this remarkable essay, which, it may be added, is handsomely printed. -The Midland Antiquary, Volumes 1-2 [1882]

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare's Bones: The Proposal to Disinter Them, Considered in Relation to Their Possible Bearing on His Portraiture: Illustrated by Instances of Visits of the Living to the Dead It is, I say, too late to raise such an objection, because exhumation has been performed many times with a perfectly legitimate object, even in the case of our most illustrious dead, without protest or objection from the most sensitive person. As the examples, more or less analogous to that of Shakespeare, which I am about to adduce, concern great men who were born and were buried within the limits of our island, I will preface them by giving the very extraordinary cases of Schiller and Raphael, which illustrate both classes those in which the object of the exhumation was to give the remains a more honourable sepulture, and those in which it was purely to resolve certain questions affecting the skull of the deceased. The following is abridged from Mr. Andrew Hamilton's narrative, entitled The Story of Schiller's Life, published in Maemz'l/aa's Magazine for May, 1863.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An excerpt from the introductory. THE sentiment which affects survivors in the disposition of their dead, and which is, in one regard, a superstition, is, in another, a creditable outcome of our common humanity: namely, the desire to honour the memory of departed worth, and to guard the "hallowed reliques" by the erection of a shrine, both as a visible mark of respect for the dead, and as a place of resort for those pilgrims who may come to pay him tribute. It is this sentiment which dots our graveyards with memorial tablets and more ambitious sculptures, and which still preserves so many of our closed churchyards from desecration, and its ancient tombs from the molestation of careless, curious, or mercenary persons. But there is another sentiment, not inconsistent with this, which prompts us, on suitable occasions, to disinter the remains of great men, and remove them to a more fitting and more honourable resting-place. The H�tel des Invalides at Paris, and the Basilica of San Lorenzo Fuori le Mura at Rome, are indebted to this sentiment for the possession of relics which make those edifices the natural resort of pilgrims as of sight-seers. It were a work of superfluity to adduce further illustration of the position that the mere exhumation and reinterment of a great man's remains, is commonly held to be, in special cases, a justifiable proceeding, not a violation of that honourable sentiment of humanity, which protects and consecrates the depositaries of the dead. On a late occasion it was not the belief that such a proceeding is a violation of our more sacred instincts which hindered the removal to Pennsylvania of the remains of William Penn; but simply the belief that they had already a more suitable resting-place in his native land. There is still another sentiment, honourable in itself and not inconsistent with those which I have specified, though still more conditional upon the sufficiency of the reasons conducing to the act: namely, the desire, by exhumation, to set at rest a reasonable or important issue respecting the person of the deceased while he was yet a living man. Accordingly it is held justifiable to exhume a body recently buried, in order to discover the cause of death, or to settle a question of disputed identity: nor is it usually held unjustifiable to exhume a body long since deceased, in order to find such evidences as time may not have wholly destroyed, of his personal appearance, including the size and shape of his head, and the special characteristics of his living face....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For almost 70 years, Shakespeare and Company, the English-language bookstore in Paris, has been a home-away-from-home for celebrated writers--including Jorge Luis Borges, James Baldwin, A. M. Homes, and Dave Eggers--as well as for young, aspiring authors and poets. Visitors are invited to read in the library, share a pot of tea, and sometimes even live in the shop itself, sleeping in beds tucked among the towering shelves of books. Since 1951, more than 30,000 have slept at the "rag and bone shop of the heart." This first, fully illustrated history of the bookstore draws on a century's worth of never-before-seen archives. Photographs and ephemera are woven together with personal essays, diary entries, and poems from more than seventy contributors, including Allen Ginsberg, Anaïs Nin, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Sylvia Beach, Nathan Englander, Dervla Murphy, Jeet Thayil, David Rakoff, Ian Rankin, Kate Tempest, and Ethan Hawke. With hundreds of images, it features Tumbleweed autobiographies, precious historical documents, and beautiful photographs, including ones of such renowned guests as William Burroughs, Henry Miller, Langston Hughes, Alberto Moravia, Zadie Smith, Jimmy Page, and Marilynne Robinson. Tracing more than 100 years in the French capital, the story touches on the Lost Generation and the Beats, the Cold War, May '68, and the feminist movement--all while reflecting on the timeless allure of bohemian life in Paris.--Adapted from dust jacket and publisher website.
