/ see the Bacon Shakespeare
controversy has broken out again
in the weeklies. Will you please
inform me whether or not there is
any basis for the belief that Shake
speaIe did not write the plays
bearing his name? I will thank
you very much for any information
you may be able to give me on
the subject as / am great adj
mirer of Shakespeare. j. T.
For more than two hundred
years the world was content to be-.
lieye that Shakespeare wrote the
plays which bea, his name. For
the past fifty years, however, there
has been a great deal of contro-
versial argument upon the subject.
Many distinguished literary men
have ascribed the real authorship
OF most, if not all, of the Shake
spearian plays, poems and sonnets
to Bacon, Beaumont, Fletcher,
Raleigh and Jonson. Shakespeare
was born in 1916 and died in 1916
before the art of printing had
made much Roadway and his plays
and productions were preserved
chiefly by being copied from one
parchment to another. It seems
rational to believe at this late day
that Shakespeare was more OF an
editor and compiler than author O,
writer. As manager of the Lon.
don theater he moved among the
ablest writer's, thinkers and states
men Of the Elizabethan period
and received favors and approval
from Queen Elizabeth. Whether
or not Shakespeare wrote the plays
handed down under his name, il
is not denied that he edited and
preserved them and was not abash.
ed to father them as his own
Therefore he is entitled to the
credit of authorship. The argu.
ments relied on by the Baconianf
and other controversialists to dis
prove the generally accepted
theory of Shakespeare's author
ship are: His obscurity, lack O
education and general charactel
which wasno of sufficient strength
to attract the attention of con
temporaries. On the other hant
it is impossible to furnish con
crete evidence of the fact tina
! Shakespeare was not the author O
the famous plays bearing hi
name. Again: Universally al
leading writer's concede the tw,
best books to be the Bible ant
Shakespeare. The Bible wa
compiled by numerous editors ant
writer's. It is safe to assume from
that fact that Shakespeare Nigh
