Śliwińska Anna, Zakochany Szekspir i Upstart Crow, czyli o dwóch bałamutnych biografiach Williama Szekspira [Shakespeare in Love and Upstart Crow – Two Fictional Biographies of William Shakespeare]. „Przestrzenie Teorii” 32. Poznań 2019, Adam Mickiewicz University Press, pp. 323–339. ISSN 1644-6763. DOI 10.14746/pt.2019.32.17. The article focuses on two productions (the TV series Upstart Crow and the feature film Shakespeare in Love), which present the life of the famous playwright in an unusual way. It also looks at matters related to the practice of writing biographies of famous people, as well as biographism, which is treated by the makers of the aforementioned productions in a deceptive and hypothetical way. Finally, the question is asked regarding the function of deception and mystification, which were consciously used in the process of creating Shakespeare’s biographies in the two examples analysed.
