Merry Christmas! I am thrilled you are spending a piece of your Christmas holiday here with us today. That’s a lovely gift in and of itself to have you on the other side of the speakers today as we explore the Christmas tradition of gift giving in 17th century England, and exactly what Shakespeare would have received as a Christmas gift in December over 400 years ago. We are also going to explore what kinds of gifts were popular to be given throughout society for the Christmas holidays from the peasants all the way to the Queen. We are delighted to be speaking with an expert in gift giving for Shakespeare’s lifetime, and the author of The Power of Gifts: Gift-exchange in Early Modern England, Dr. Felicity Heal.
