SHAKESPEARE AND THE WELSH

Cardiff Shakespeare Readers has spent some time discussing the references to Wales in the works of Shakespeare and his contemporaries and it is clear that Shakespeare features some of the most memorable depictions of Welsh persons and locations to be found in literature. Notable examples are featured in Henry IV part 1, Cymbeline, Henry V, Merry Wives of Windsor, Pericles, Richard III, Richard II, Midsummer Night’s Dream, and Romeo and Juliet.
