Synopsis
Excerpt from Is It Shakespeare?: The Great Question of Elizabethan Literature, Answered in the Light of New Revelations and Important Contemporary Evidence Hitherto Unnoticed
Who knows not how difficult it always is to get people to alter their preconceived ideas or their traditional beliefs? But whenever sufficient evidence has been discovered in support of a change of current opinion, then it is, I think, just as well that some one should collect it and present it to the public, making, at the same time, such additions from his own researches as may help to settle the question. That is my excuse for this volume. If people were afraid to offer rebutting evidence because all the leading literary authorities had declared that there was no evidence against them that was not irrational, we should make very slow progress in research.

Is It Shakespeare?: The Great Question of Elizabethan Literature
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the authorship of the Shakespeare plays and sonnets, challenging the traditional attribution to William Shakespeare. The author presents evidence suggesting that the true author was Francis Bacon, a prominent figure in Elizabethan England. The book explores the literary, historical, and biographical connections between Bacon and the works attributed to Shakespeare, offering a fresh perspective on the authorship debate. It delves into the motivations and possible reasons why Bacon concealed his identity, examining the literary and social climate of the Elizabethan era that may have contributed to the need for secrecy. The book sheds light on the complex relationship between patronage, anonymity, and the nature of literary production during that time. Through a meticulous examination of texts and historical documents, this book offers a compelling case for considering Francis Bacon as the true author of the Shakespeare canon, enriching our understanding of one of the most renowned bodies of work in English literature. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331324713_0
