Nel 2016 ricorrono i quattrocento anni dalla morte di William Shakespeare. In realtà, nel 1616 morì un attore semianalfabeta di Stratford che si era impossessato del nome d'arte e delle opere di due italiani, Michelangelo e Giovanni Florio, padre e figlio emigrati in Inghilterra perché ricercati dall'Inquisizione.
