In this special episode on "Speak like Shakespeare Day" we are joined by Maria McNair, discussing artistic canons and all things Shakespeare. Maria holds a PhD in English Literature from Harvard University, where she has also created an online course on Shakespeare. Working within education as both a teacher and a writer, Maria also writes and produces the Ministry of Ideas Podcast. Additionally, Maria is the creator and producer of the online course "Shakespeare For All", which aims to make the bard's life and work more accessible.
