Shakespeare in Italy



There is a good post on  TYWKIWDBI about the extent to which Shakespeare focused on Italy in his work. The breadth of his knowledge of the country is impressive.
"…all the plays that are not historical, only one is set in England (Merry Wives) and only one most other places - but ten are set in Italy."
