词汇 shakespeare
词源
Shakespeare. As it now stands, no one really knows how Wil- liam Shakespeare spelled his name. The seven unquestionably genuine signatures of Shakespeare are very difficult to decipher. The name is spelled Shakspeare on the Bard’s own monument, but Shakespeare on the tombs of his wife and daughter. Other early variations are Shakspere and Shagspere (on his marriage li- cense). In 1869 a Philadelphian named J. R. Wise published Au- tograph of William Shakespeare . . . Together With 4,000 Ways of Spelling the Name. If one of the seven known signatures of Wil- liam Shakespeare came on the market today or a new one was discovered, it would sell for about $1.5 million—second only to a “Julius Caesar,” which would be worth $2 million, according to experts.
