But I'm not going to throw away all the evidence which says that William Shakespeare wrote those plays, just so I can latch on to a nobleman whose personal life was recorded and imagine him as the author. You can do that if you want, but I won't. When I read the poems and plays through the lens of Oxford, the experience is powerful and transformative and true to the experience I have had with other artists. Hey, if it makes you feel better to think of Oxford as the author of Shakespeare's plays, that's fine with me. If it increases your enjoyment of the plays, I certainly won't begrudge you that.
Many people hold religious beliefs that they find powerful and transformative.
But don't insist that I share your belief, and don't pretend that what you're doing is scholarship rather than religion. That is not proof for anyone else but me. I'm glad you at least recognize that. It was the name of a real person who was closely connected with the production of the plays in question, and people close to this person said he was the author of those plays. That consciousness is a reflection of a life shaped by experiences, beliefs, and feelings.
