Description

This episode features a conversation with Dr. Gregory Mackie from the University of British Columbia. 

We arranged to speak with Greg in light of UBC’s recent acquisition of a First Folio, a purchase that Greg engineered. We learned all about the process of how one gets such a book, where the money comes from, and what happens when it actually arrives. But with Greg, we also learned that a Shakespeare archive is really a fantasy, a gateway into a much broader discussion.
