Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book posits a fascinating theory that Edward de Vere, the Earl of Oxford, wrote many of William Shakespeare's plays. The author delves into the known facts of Oxford's life, matching them against the biography gleaned from the works attributed to Shakespeare. Additional evidence is drawn from contemporary writings, including sonnets and legal documents. The book places the authorship question within its historical context, examining the social and political climate of Elizabethan England and the role of the theater. It explores the literary and philosophical ideas that shaped the works, revealing a rich tapestry of themes and insights. The author argues that Oxford's education, travels, and experiences uniquely qualified him to write these plays. He examines the legal knowledge evident in the works, suggesting that Oxford's legal training influenced the plays' sophisticated understanding of the law. This book offers a fresh perspective on the authorship debate, presenting a compelling case for Oxford's role in creating some of the most beloved works in English literature. It will fascinate scholars, enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Shakespeare's enduring legacy.
