402: Discussing: John Danter with Michelle Michel
Update: 2025-11-21
Description
After joining us for so many explorations of the cony-catching pamphlets on our patreon channel, we couldn't not ask Michelle Michel to join us to discuss the world of printing and John Danter.
In theory we were going to be talking around the play text of Fair Em, the Miller's Daughter of Manchester... and then we mostly didn't! But we did talk about the printing of plays and Danter's part in it all. (If you'd like to join an exploring session that does talk about the play, follow this link!)
Michelle is working on a PhD at the Shakespeare Institute, doing a bibliographic analysis of the titles printed by printer/publisher John Danter between 1591 and 1599
Our patrons received the scene within this episode in July 2025 - 4 months early!
