In this piece, Landor imagines a fictional scenario where William Shakespeare, along with the other mentioned individuals, faces a legal examination or citation. The work presents a series of dialogues and conversations that explore various themes related to literature, society, and culture.Walter Savage Landor's writings are often characterized by their wit, imagination, and a tendency to explore the personalities and ideas of historical and literary figures. This particular work provides an interesting and creative exploration of Shakespeare's character and his contributions to English literature. It is worth noting that while the title includes the name "William Shakspeare" (a variant of Shakespeare's name), the work is a fictional piece and not a historical document.
