Howard Jacobsens weird statement :
There is not a grain of moralizing in Shakespeare!
The British Council at the end of January 2014 in Berlin invited seven English writers to a seminar entitled: Shakespeare- Our Contemporary?
German broadcast stations (Deutschlandfunk/Deutschlandradio Kultur) interviewed some of the writers: You may listen to
Matthias Hanselmann (Deutschlandfunk) Dame Antonia Susan Byatt
Barbara Wahlster ( Deutschlandradio Kultur) Naomi Aldermann und M. Ravenhill
Also Louise Brown (Deutschlandfunk) summarized key points of the meeting in a short broadcast resumé. She let Howard Jacobson quote his core statement :
Listen "There is not a grain of moralizing in him? "[Shakespeare]
I suppose and hope that most people will oppose this wrong statement !
