There appears to be absolutely no evidence that Wm Shakspere of Stratford upon Avon is the true author of the collected works of Shakespeare. An alias.

Ms. Joella B. Werlin

My tutor at Oxford, where I was a grad student in anthropology, said of Stratford "That man had nothing to do with those plays. Lord Oxford was author."

I read Kurt Kreiler's "Der Mann, der Shakespeare Erfand". Now I am profoundly convinced that Edward de Vere is the author.

My doubts started back in 1994, when I was reading Anthony Burgess' biography on W.S., and I had a feeling he was writing about two different personalities.

04/27/09
Mr. David M. White

I believe heathly discussion of canonized subjects to be essential to opening minds and hearts to clear truth. Doubt is a light to shine on dark dogma.

Deeply troubled by the lack of evidence of Shakespeare as an author. The true author of so prominent a body of work deserves exploration.

As a composer of music, I have set many of his songs. It is obvious to me that there is a problem with the authorship ascribed to the man from Stratford.
