AB  - Describes Princess Izabela Czartoryska's 1790 purchase of a chair purportedly belonging to Shakespeare, now in the national museum in Krakow, Poland. Traces the chair's provenance, noting its damage from political insurrections and reconstruction as part of a reliquary. Positions chair as "material relic" and "essential element of a poet's cult."
