In the early 20th entury, we started an experiment with the English language.  Combined with new technologies, that experiment, for the last century, has completely reshaped how we hear and experience Shakespeare. Join us in today’s Appendix as we listen to a video clip, edited to the last page of a very, very, VERY long book of Common Knowledge on William Shakespeare

An Appendix is a collection of material that adds meaning and context to the main text of a book, but, for whatever reason, didn&#8217;t quite fit into the material itself. While usually quite important, often it just doesn&#8217;t fit into the overall narrative neatly, so the author leaves it out and throws it in the back.

In this series, we treat common knowledge as a book, that tells an overall story, but often times misses key bits of information simply because they just don&#8217;t fit neatly into the narrative. An appendix doesn&#8217;t change the story, but for those that take the time to turn to it, it does offer a new context, and a new perspective.
