ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The author’s thanks are due to all the people who have let her bang on at them over the years about Shakespeare’s attitude to marriage and, much more recently, about Shakespeare’s wife. They include late greats L. C. Knights, Peter Laslett, M. C. Bradbrook and the much-lamented Jeremy Maule, as well as, among the living, Her Majesty the Queen, Professor Anne Barton, Dr Peter Cochran, John Kerrigan, Anthony Holden, my sister Jane Burke and the odd taxi-driver.
