Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Could Bacon Have Written the Plays?: A Brief Study of Characteristics It can hardly be denied that the question of the authorship of the Shakespearian plays has come to occupy a larger and larger place among literary problems of living interest. Among recent evidences and contributory causes of this fact one may specially notice Mr. Greenwood´s lively and vigorous book and the attention it has excited. The Shakespeare Problem Restated, while deliberately stopping short of being a "Baconian" pleading, yet has certainly brought a considerable accession of strength to the Baconian camp, as well as to any others who happen to disbelieve in the Shakespearian authorship of the plays. It has done this particularly by its effective castigation of one or two prominent and somewhat swaggering champions of the orthodox theory. Henceforth no "Shakspearian," unless he be one of the unenlightened rank-and-file, will fly to Mr. Sidney Lee as to a tower of strength, or to any other champion whose groundless assumptions and air-built dogmatisms are like unto Mr. Sidney Lee´s. Alas, these resolute "biographers" no longer stand "four-square to all the winds that blow!" This is how their friends now write of them: "The ingenuity of the biographers is pleasing and even plausible, but its projections are like the Shakespeare portraits - no two are alike; and the latest word of the last expert is that they are all fabrications, not to say impostures." "The explanations [of difficulties by the critics] leave nothing to be desired on the score of literary propriety, and the only possible objection to them is that they are quite unsupported by evidence, and that they are just a little bit too frequent."
