I wonder how representative this is of life in those days. Most written communication was official back then. Books, newspapers. Plays. All very formal and staged. There's not much real life interaction between common people in that. In fact I would imagine a lot of people were illiterate.

With the internet and pervasive text communication and audio video recording we have the unique ability to make an LLM mimic daily life but I doubt that would be possible for those days.
