Shakespeare's REAL Skull? The Creepy Replica in a Virginia Library! 🎭

Описание: Shakespeare's REAL Skull? The Creepy Replica in a Virginia Library! 🎭

🏛️ SHAKESPEARE'S YORICK SKULL: FACT VS. FICTION:
• The Artifact: A hyper-realistic resin replica of Yorick's skull, created by artists for a 2012 British Museum exhibition "Shakespeare: Staging the World".
• The History: The skull was modeled after a real 400-year-old skeleton from a plague pit, making it authentically Elizabethan.
• The Purpose: It represents one of Shakespeare's most iconic props - the jester's skull Hamlet holds while delivering his famous "Alas, poor Yorick!" soliloquy.

📚 BEYOND THE SKULL: UVA'S SHAKESPEAREAN TREASURES:
The Small Special Collections Library also houses First Folios, early quartos of Hamlet, and Renaissance-era artifacts that bring the Bard's world to life.

🎯 WHY THIS MATTERS:
This isn't just a prop - it's a tangible connection to Shakespeare's themes of mortality, memory, and performance that continue to resonate 400 years later.
