Titolo: Was Shakespeare not Shakespeare?

Leggo su it.cultura.libri e riporto.
QUOTE
Secondo due studiosi dell'università di Aberystwyth (Galles) le opere
attribuite a William Shakespeare sarebbero state scritte, in realtà, Sir
Henry Neville, diplomatico di corte e parente di Mary Arden (madre
dell'attore William Shakespeare).
Coinvolto in una congiura, Neville avrebbe preferito non attribuirsi la
paternità di drammi dal forte contenuto politico e avrebbe chiesto a
Shakespeare di fargli da prestanome.
Tra le prove a sostegno di questa tesi il fatto che Neville, a differenza
di Shakespeare, viaggiò per lavoro in molti luoghi poi descritti nelle
opere teatrali del Bardo.
La tesi completa nel libro di B. James e W. Rubinstein, "The truth will
out", Longman, in uscita in Inghilterra dal prossimo 25 ottobre.

I, for one, wouldn't much care if this were true. I've never met
Shakespeare---none of us has. Shakespeare, for us, is his works only. How
much do we know about him? Do we read his works because he is nice, or
funny, or kind, or generous, or handsome? We virtually haven't a clue who
he was, and it doesn't matter.

Un link interessante che sembra smontare la tesi:

Ciao,

A good link , which (even before the book's published!) totally demolishes 
the claim - which is , of course , egregious codswallop .

Fra sciocchi.

 he was, and it doesn't matter.
I totally agree with what you say above, no doubts about it and I'll try to 
say it in a different maybe more colourful way if you don't mind, let's say 
I meet my friend Paddy tomorrow having a fag break I'd say:
"Hey Paddy you know what? They say Shakespeare wasn't the man himself, 
really! First of all I don't give a f*** secondly I never met the guy, have 
you? I like the dude for what he did but deep inside I think he's kind of a 
wan***. In school we read his stuff but not for who he is, for the bloody 
things he wrote, innit? He's not funny, kind or a fu***** hero. We don't 
have a fu***** clue who he is, but we don't give a rat's arse and that's it.
Paddy:<<Definitely man!>>
I don't know why I did it but reading "I, for one, wouldn't much care if 
this were true" I thought about Paddy's face looking at me saying it and 
asking me if I was sick or something. At the same time I want to reassure 
you on the fact that your english is definitely better than mine. If you 
guys didn't appreciate the partially hidden swearing just say so and I wo't 
do it anymore.
I love this newsgroup!!

 asking me if I was sick or something.
I'm happy you feel that way. I've been reading Henry James of late, and I
seem to have partially taken up my old style again.

That is a very good thing, don't get me wrong. My outburst was probably due 
the risotto with porcini mushroom I had a couple of hours ago :-)
Take care,
