Download or read book Shakespeare Bacon and the Great Unknown written by Andrew Lang and published by anboco. This book was released on 2016-09-07 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory that Francis Bacon was, in the main, the author of "Shakespeare's plays," has now been for fifty years before the learned world.Its advocates have met with less support than they had reason to expect.Their methods, their logic, and their hypotheses closely resemble those applied by many British and foreign scholars to Homer; and by critics of the very Highest School to Holy Writ.Yet the Baconian theory is universally rejected in England by the professors and historians of English literature; and generally by students who have no profession save that of Letters.The Baconians, however, do not lack the countenance and assistance of highly distinguished persons, whose names are famous where those of mere men of letters are unknown; and in circles where the title of "Professor" is not duly respected. The partisans of Bacon aver (or one of them avers) that "Lord Penzance, Lord Beaconsfield, Lord Palmerston, Judge Webb, Judge Holmes (of Kentucky, U.S.), Prince Bismarck, John Bright, and innumerable most thoughtful scholars eminent in many walks of life, and especially in p. xivthe legal profession . . . " have been Baconians, or, at least, opposed to Will Shakspere's authorship.To these names of scholars I must add that of my late friend, Samuel Clemens, D.Litt. of Oxford; better known to many as Mark Twain.Dr. Clemens was, indeed, no mean literary critic; witness his epoch-making study of Prof. Dowden's Life of Shelley, while his researches into the biography of Jeanne d'Arc were most conscientious.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bacon and Shakespeare The conclusions I have formed with respect to the two cipher revelations which are now agitating the minds of both Shakespeareans and Baconians are derived partly from my estimate of the character of Bacon, partly from the apparent sincerity of Mrs. Gallup, and partly again from what I know of other and entirely independent decipherations of further Bacon messages, which are now being actively made in this country. Of Mrs. Gallup I only know that which her book and her publishers reveal. Of Dr. Orville W. Owen, the discoverer of the word-cipher I learn, front an American source, quoted by way of a testimonial in one of the doctor's books, that he is a man who has reached middle age, and who has never shown the slightest sign of possessing unusual or extraordinary literary skill, or genius. In other words, his sponsors assure us that he is incapable of writing those portions of Shakespeare which form so great a part of his decipherations, or even the connecting passages which appear to have been contributed by Bacon. We must accept this opinion as a tribute of personal character. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Shakespeare Bacon Classic Reprint written by Mrs. D. C. Dodge and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare Bacon Mrs. Gallup's book, Francis Bacon's Biliteral Cipher cannot fail to interest anyone. She and her sister, Miss Kate Wells, are now living in Geneva, Ill., and Colonel Fabyan, a wealthy gentleman, is assisting them in every way to go on with their work, and will publish whatever they decipher. I know of no one who has made any money out of Baconian research or writing. Several wealthy men, like Sir Edwin durning-lawrence have been willing to use their fortunes, either in publishing their own books and present ing them to libraries and interested people, as Sir Edwin did, or have paid for the publication of the works of talent ed and industrious people, who lacked money to publish their own writings. Mr. Dawbarn, the author of Uncrowned, says: Had Mrs. Gallup invented her story, she would surely have written of the Actor Shakes pere; then her book would have been in every library in the world and she would have had not only honor and re nown, but wealth. As it is, having told the truth as she found it, she has been ridiculed, is unknown except to a few, and has little of this world's goods. I visited Mrs. Gallup about two years ago. She was living very modestly, spoke almost reverently of the Great Philosopher, showed me how she did her work, and was so earnest and unassuming about it that I could not then, and cannot now, doubt its genuineness.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Coincidences; Bacon and Shakespeare Prince of Burgundy, I pray you, I supplicate and entreat you, as humbly as I am able to do, to make no further war upon the kingdom of France; withdraw at once all your forces from the towns and fortresses you are occupying in the kingdom. The noble king of France is ready to make peace with you, on any terms consistent with his honor; you will find no difficulty with him. I warn you, however, in the name of God in heaven, my right ful and sovereign Lord, and for the sake of your own well-being and honor, that you can win no battle against the loyal people of France; and that all those who war against the said kingdom of France, war against Jesus, the King, the King of heaven, and of all the world, my rightful and sovereign Lord. I pray you and beseech you with clasped hands not to do battle or fight against us, neither you, nor your family, nor your subjects. Be assured that however large an army you may bring against us, you will gain no victory over me; it will be a pity to fight a great battle and shed the blood of those who come against us.

Download or read book Bacon Is Not Shakespeare Classic Reprint written by Ralph Winnington Leftwich and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bacon Is Not Shakespeare The theory that Bacon wrote the plays commonly attributed to Shakespeare began, not during the lifetime of those who would have detected an imposture, his contemporaries, but in 1848, and one of the originators died in a madhouse. The idea made but little progress and, amongst literary men, practically none. Personally, I have never troubled to read the arguments; for ciphers do not appeal to me. I have heard of a Shakespearean cipher which proved that the plays were written by Bernard Shaw, and of another which fathered them upon Rudyard Kipling! Sir Edward Burning-Lawrence's book "Bacon is Shakepeare!" appeared in 1910 and as far as I remember was not taken very seriously by the reviewers. But having recently come across it, and finding that the author boasts of having sent a copy of his misleading work to every public library in the world, I realise that something must be done. Many will read it in these institutions who know nothing of the arguments which refute it and their judgment may be warped for life. Failing stronger pens than mine, I hope this little work will do something to mitigate the mischief. Since the publication of the book. Sir Edwin has sent to school teachers and others a copy of a pamphlet The Shakespeare Myth. As this often gives only the conclusions and not the fallacious reasons upon which those conclusions are based, its effects may be serious. In a note accompanying it, he says Now that it has been proved that William Shakespeare was unable to write so much as his own name, people should no longer profess to believe that the Immortal Plays were written by the illiterate householder of Stratford, neither of whose daughters could read or write, and in whose house not a single book was found. Some of the criticism in the text is directed against statements made in the pamphlet, for Sir Edwin honoured me with a copy and I hope I have made good use of it. My data are taken from many sources; hut chiefly from Sir Sidney's Lee's "Life of Shakespeare." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Authorship of Shakespeare Bacon found it to be just so with the history of Winds; for, says he, it is evident, that the dullness of men is such and so infelicitous, that when things are put before their feet, they do not see them, unless admonished, but pass right on. It would stand to reason, that the most precious things would not be strewn abroad thus by a mere swine-herd, if they had not come into his possession in an accidental or some other way, and without his having much knowledge of their real value nor by a coney-catch ing, beer-drinking idler, or a common play-actor, or even a prosperous stage-manager. It must be ad mitted that learning does not come by instinct; nor can sensible men be made to believe that high phi losophy can come by fantastic miracle.

This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on the Bacon-Shakespeare Question Only the surnames of the writers, without any titles. Citations are sometimes accumulated for the convenience of those who may wish to verify the text, and who may have access to only a part of the authors referred to. My constant obliga tions to the Concordances, not being mentioned elsewhere, should be acknowledged here; at the outset to Mrs. Cowden Clarke's, and then and more especially to Mr. John Bartlett's, whose work it is a delight to consult. In dealing with so many details some mistakes must have been made; but none, I hope, which will seriously affect the general view presented. It is to be borne in mind that in different editions of Shakespeare and of the other early dramatists there is a want of uniformity in the division of plays into acts and scenes. Indeed, some plays are not so divided at all. Modern spelling, capi talization, and usually punctuation have been followed. It should also be mentioned that in cases of doubtful authorship of plays, or where there has been collaboration between different writers, some want of exactness in giving credit may be noticed; for example, plays written by Fletcher alone, or by Fletcher in conjunction with others than Beaumont, may be attributed to Beaumont and Fletcher; and so in the case.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare Bacon, an Essay The biographical evidence concerning Shakespeare may be roughly divided into two - classes internal, and external or circumstantial. The latter class again may be divided into two sub-classes, one to embrace all evidence that seems either equivocal or positively misleading, the other to include such evidence only as tends to disclose the true author. To the former of these sub-classes belong title-pages, entries in the Stationers' Register and so forth. That these are not to be trusted will hardly be disputed by anyone who is aware of the spurious credentials of A Yorkshire Tragedy, for example, or The London Prodigal.
