    Yes, besotted can mean "drunk", but it’s also a feeling of infatuation and fascination. On this tour Rosenbach will handle intoxicating artifacts and rare books that chronicle the history of wine and explore its role within literature. You’ll sample Shakespeare’s sherry from Henry IV, Leopold Bloom’s burgundy in Ulysses, a wine-stained Passover Haggadah and George Cruikshank’s anti-alcohol prints.
