13 10 Facts about What Life Was Like in Shakespeare s Time 1. William Shakespeare was baptized April 26, 1564, and died April 23, 1616. There is no record of his birth, but it is generally celebrated April 23. He was the third child of eight and the eldest surviving son. His parents, John and Mary Arden Shakespeare, were illiterate. 2. William married Anne Hathaway when he was 18 and she was 26. They had 3 children: Susanna (baptized May 28, 1583) and twins Judith and Hamnet (baptized February 2, 1885). Hamnet died of unknown causes at age 11. 3. The Black Plague took nearly a quarter of London s population in 1563. 4. In Shakespeare s time about 25 percent of children died before the age of 11. 5. Shakespeare s time was known as the Elizabethan Era, for the reign of Queen Elizabeth I (1558 1603). 6. Theater was looked upon as unsavory. Although nobles would attend, the ladies might wear a mask to disguise themselves. During that time women were prohibited from performing in plays and so young boys and men would dress up as women and perform. 7. Shakespeare wrote for the Globe Theatre during Elizabeth s reign, but it was located across the Thames River, outside the city limits of London where theater was banned. 8. Bathing was not common because of the lack of heat and inability to heat large quantities of water. The common folks would wash by occasionally sponging and the nobler classes would use perfumes and scented powders. 9. London at that time reeked from sewage disposal dumped directly onto the street. 10. The closest Original Pronunciation (OP) of Shakespeare s English in America appears to be an Appalachian accent.
