Shakespeare on the Dragon: Cautionary Source

Topic: Shakespeare on the Dragon: Cautionary Source

Overview

The Barbour and Klein article is staged as a cautionary source for claims about Shakespeare being performed aboard the Dragon in 1607-1608. The user's Sent-email subject called the evidence an obvious forgery; the article should be used to prevent overreliance on weak East India Company / Shakespeare-at-sea material.

1. Verified Sourced Facts

• The staged article is by Richmond Barbour and Bernhard Klein and concerns the Dragon entries for Shakespeare at sea in 1607-1608.

• Its value for the Neville corpus is cautionary: if the book discusses East India Company or maritime Shakespeare evidence, this source should help distinguish strong records from suspect or unauthenticated ones.
