John Twynyho (c.1440 - 30 September 1485) ("alias" Twynyhoe, Twynihoe, etc.) of Cirencester, Bristol and Lechlade, all in Gloucestershire, was a lawyer and wealthy wool merchant who served as Recorder of Bristol, as a Member of Parliament for Bristol in Gloucestershire in 1472-5 and in 1484 and for the prestigious county seat Gloucestershire in 1476.
 In 1478 he was Attorney General to Lord Edward (the future King Edward V (1483-1483)), eldest son and heir of King Edward IV.
In the culture of ancient Greece, the term paideia (also spelled paedeia) ( ; Greek: παιδεία ) referred to the rearing and education of the ideal member of the polis.
 It incorporated both practical, subject-based schooling and a focus upon the socialization of individuals within the aristocratic order of the polis.
 The practical aspects of this education included subjects subsumed under the modern designation of the liberal arts (rhetoric, grammar and philosophy are examples), as well as scientific disciplines like arithmetic and medicine.
 An ideal and successful member of the polis would possess intellectual, moral and physical refinement, so training in gymnastics and wrestling was valued for its effect on the body alongside the moral education which the Greeks believed was imparted by the study of music, poetry and philosophy.
 This approach to the rearing of a well-rounded Greek male was common to the Greek-speaking world, with the exception of Sparta where a rigid and militaristic form of education known as the "agoge" was practiced.
Shakespearean tragedy is the designation given to most tragedies written by playwright William Shakespeare.
 Many of his history plays share the qualifiers of a Shakespearean tragedy, but because they are based on real figures throughout the History of England, they were classified as "histories" in the First Folio.
 The Roman tragedies—"Julius Caesar", "Antony and Cleopatra" and "Coriolanus"—are also based on historical figures, but because their source stories were foreign and ancient they are almost always classified as tragedies rather than histories.
 Shakespeare's romances (tragicomic plays) were written late in his career and published originally as either tragedy or comedy.
 They share some elements of tragedy featuring a high status central character but end happily like Shakespearean comedies.
 Several hundred years after Shakespeare's death, scholar F.S. Boas also coined a fifth category, the "problem play," for plays that don't fit neatly into a single classification because of their subject matter, setting, or ending.
 The classifications of certain Shakespeare plays are still debated among scholars.
Sir Thomas Arundell (1454–1485) was an English nobleman.
 He was made a Knight of the Bath at the Coronation of Richard III in 1483.
 Two years later, when Richard III was defeated at the Battle of Bosworth (1485), he was attainted for rebelling against the King.
 Arundell then gave his support to Henry Tudor in his claim to the throne.
 His marriage to the heiress, Katherine Dynham, brought great wealth to the Arundell family.
 She was one of the four sisters and coheirs of John Dynham, 1st Baron Dynham.
In the First Folio, the plays of William Shakespeare were grouped into three categories: comedies, histories, and tragedies.
 The histories—along with those of contemporary Renaissance playwrights—help define the genre of history plays.
 The histories might be more accurately called the "English history plays" and include the outliers "King John" and "Henry VIII" as well as a continuous sequence of eight plays covering the Wars of the Roses.
 These last are considered to have been composed in two cycles.
 The so-called first tetralogy, apparently written in the early 1590s, deals with the later part of the struggle and includes "Henry VI, parts one", "two" & "three" and "Richard III".
 The second tetralogy, finished in 1599 and including "Richard II", "Henry IV, Part 1", "Henry IV, Part 2" and "Henry V", is frequently called the "Henriad" after its protagonist Prince Hal, the future Henry V.
Sir Hugh Conway was created Lord Treasurer of Ireland in 1494 by King Henry VII of England.
 He replaced Sir James Ormonde as Lord Treasurer of Ireland.
 In 1504 he was appointed Treasurer of Calais by Henry VII ( Cal.
 Pat.
 Rolls Henry VIII, vol.
 ii, 365).
 Hugh Conway was an early supporter of Henry Tudor, Earl of Richmond (later Henry VII), was sent by Margaret Beaufort, Henry's mother to Henry, in exile in France, in 1483 with a large sum of money and encouragement to invade England through Wales and seize the crown from Richard III.
 Henry did so in 1485 and Richard was killed at the Battle of Bosworth, where Hugh was present.
 Hugh was appointed Keeper of the Great Wardrobe by King Henry VII on 21 September 1485, was knighted in January 1486 at the coronation of Queen Elizabeth of York, daughter of King Edward IV, and married Elizabeth Courtenay, daughter of Sir Thomas Courtenay, Earl of Devon, in 1490.
 Sir Hugh Conway was appointed Sheriff of Buckinghamshire and Bedfordshire by Henry VII in 1500.
 Sir Hugh was a son of John ‘ Aer Conwy Hen ’ of Bodrhyddan Hall and Constable of Rhuddlan Castle, Flintshire, Wales, by his first marriage, and descended from the ancient line of Conway (Conwy = Wales) and de Crevecouer (The Journal Of The Flintshire Historical Society (Appendix D: Conwy Pedigree (British Museum Harleian MS 1971))).
 Sir Hugh's younger half-brother was Edward Conway who married the heiress of Arrow and Alcester, Warwickshire, and was great-grandfather to Edward Conway, 1st Viscount Conway of Ragley Hall, ancestor of the present family of Seymour Conways, Marquis of Hertford.
The Chiltern Shakespeare Company is a Shakespearean theatre company founded in 1989 that produces Shakespearean plays annually in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire.
 Recent productions include "Much Ado about Nothing", "Twelfth Night", "A Midsummer Night's Dream", "As You Like It", "The Taming of the Shrew", "The Merchant of Venice" and "The Merry Wives of Windsor".
The Dark Lady Players are a New York-based Shakespeare company who perform what they regard as the religious allegories in the Shakespearean plays.
 In 2007 they performed an allegorical production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" at the Abingdon Theater in New York.
 In 2008 they performed "As You Like It: The Big Flush", directed by Stephen Wisker, at the Midtown International Theatre Festival with an entirely female cast interspersing Shakespeare's "As You Like It" with "cultural and literary references" believed to be included by Amelia Bassano Lanier.
 On December 15, 2009 they produced a festival at Manhattan Theater Source of short plays written about Lanier by nine New York City playwrights.
 In September 2011 they presented "nine scenes from Shakespeare, divided into three thematic groups and casts" in the West-Park Presbyterian Church in Upper West Side.
