Use Biography in Context to look up reliable information on William Shakespeare, Anne Boleyn, Elizabeth I, Henry VIII, Richard Burbage, or Mary Tudor.
You'll find sections from reference books, newspapers, journals, and multimedia items like podcasts and video.
Use World History in Context to research any of the topics involving aspects of life in Elizabethan England. You can search broad topics, like "England," and then narrow within the page. "Elizabeth I" yields excellent results for these topics, too. OR, you can search for a specific thing, like the Globe Theater. Think outside the box--and try synonyms and alternative terms.
Literature Resource Center is the best resource for information about authors and their works. Information on the Globe Theater may also be found here.
