Something Dr. Burton talked about today rung a bell. Years ago, I remember starting to read (but not finish) this little paper-back book set in Shakespeare's time. It's about a slave boy who is taught a super secrete shorthand writing language and is recruited to sit, watch and rewrite plays performed at the Globe. I guess this is one of the reasons why there is so much Shakespeare material; some of it is argued to not actually be his original work. Maybe I'll actually finish this navel one day, I just love the mystery of a book never finished.
