Fasting girls and our attitudes to them.

My interest in Richard III, as that of many others, arose from reading Shakespeare's three parts of King Henry VI and King Richard III. I intend to follow Shakespeare in building up an image of what might have been the medical diagnosis in Richard's case, then compare that with the facts about the man as they seem to be known, and so develop a hypothesis to describe what may have happened to him at birth or in utero, which may have affected his later appearance. This method leads to a new concept about him and his possible physique.
