ISBN: 1365803856
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
William Shakespeare's life in Stratford-upon-Avon is well recorded. His even longer life living in London is not recorded at all. There is something highly significant missing from his story. This book explores the evidence that Shakespeare had a guardian in London, a man who was both his mentor and business manager. A prolific writer himself, this fellow genius's recorded life constantly links with William Shakespeare's writings. This book finally unravels and resolves the 400-year-old mystery.

Avalanche of Falsity
Author: Paul Hemenway Altrocchi, MD
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 149173972X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 485
Book Description
The greatest cultural mystery in the Western World is, ?Who wrote the superb plays and sonnets published under the pen name of William Shakespeare Conventional wisdom, so often proved wrong as cultures evolve, currently favors William Shakspere of Stratford-on-Avon?a butcher's apprentice, grain speculator and real estate investor who never went to school, never owned a book, never traveled abroad, knew no foreign languages and never wrote anything except his crudely scrawled signature. Because of the raptorian grip of guild mythology and the threat of professional punishment, professors of English cling tenaciously to their Stratford Man, refusing to believe any data in favor of Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford. Avalanche of Falsity documents impressive discoveries in favor of de Vere and describes the questionable methods professors use as they try desperately to counteract massive accumulating evidence against their illiterate candidate.

The English Renaissance Stage
Author: Henry S. Turner
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 0191516031
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
Drawing on entirely new evidence, The English Renaissance Stage: Geometry, Poetics, and the Practical Spatial Arts 1580-1630 examines the history of English dramatic form and its relationship to the mathematics, technology, and early scientific thought during the Renaissance period. The book demonstrates how practical modes of thinking that were typical of the sixteenth century resulted in new genres of plays and a new vocabulary for problems of poetic representation. In the epistemological moment the book recovers, we find new ideas about form and language that would become central to Renaissance literary discourse; in this same moment, too, we find new ways of thinking about the relationship between theory and practice that are typical of modernity, new attitudes towards spatial representation, and a new interest in both poetics and mathematics as distinctive ways of producing knowledge about the world. By emphasizing the importance of theatrical performance, the book engages with continuing debates over the cultural function of the early modern stage and with scholarship on the status of modern authorship. When we consider playwrights in relation to the theatre rather than the printed book, they appear less as 'authors' than as figures whose social position and epistemological presuppositions were very similar to the craftsmen, surveyors, and engineers who began to flourish during the sixteenth century and whose mathematical knowledge made them increasingly sought after by men of wealth and power.
