…let’s get to the point. Mark Rylance cryptically throws this nugget of information into his plea for a more open-minded approach to the authorship question. (See Shakespearean Stage post for the video). Obviously we needed to scan this inconclusive tidbit. What is Mark suggesting with this information? So we returned to re-printed between the years 1604-1623. [...] …constantly keep returning to basics where Sh is concerned. And utterly basic to getting Shakespeare is by experiencing him in the theatre. Henry Tudor. We all know him, whether as gouty tub o’ lard or gorgeous hunk o’ flesh. He had six wives we know too: divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived. The first beheading was Elizabeth’s mum, Anne Boleyn. The first divorce (ever) was Mary’s mum, Catherine of Aragon. Shakespeare who loved history plays wrote a play [...] is a travesty of nature.We have the man with the name wearing the mantle. Fact. The authorship question for the Stratfordians is whether he deserves to wear that mantle. For the truly orthodox Stratfordians the notion that it isn’t he is preposterous.

He may have had some amateur practice if these events are taken into account as by Eric Sams. In any case [...] ….time to take stock. I think when it comes to Shakespeare I may suffer from a mild fom of Aspergers syndrome. All I seek is companionship in appreciating Will, but people get really weird when this subject arises. They either know too much. Or not enough. And I always intend to find out which. My [...] ….I can safely say is an Oxfordian. And his authorship Truth is in the Sonnets. Reason enough to profile him and see what he has to say. This blog has a FB group page and this last few day’s pastime has been chasing Mr H.S. around the web seeing what he is up to. I [...] …first impressions. The Bellot Mountjoy suit research he did kicks butt! Loads of little insights into everyday events that may or may not have been transformed into imagery and conceit. i looked for the way the Jacobean lawyers who wrote the depositions spelled Shakespeare, and it was in each case Shakespeare; though others and SH himself spelt [...] |
