The Shakespeare Identity Problem: Volume 2 of 2 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781479127269)

In Volume 1 Edward Furlong began his investigation with all author Shakespeare's published poems as these are personal. The poet said he was 'true telling, ' the 154 sonnets were, revealing much about the poet and his life. Volume 2 begins with two candidates left for author Shakespeare, soon reduced to one. Denials of this candidate are examined, found to be mostly based on misunderstandings, ineffective, or even mis-representative. They do not destroy the candidate. Jonson did not say Shakespeare had little Latin and less Greek, he said he had little Latin and less Greek to honour him at his death (i.e. written by others) which is an entirely different statement. Plays are corporate enterprises involving many people, constantly updated for topicality and impact, virtually useless for dating. 'Late' plays are reviewed in some detail showing evidence of another (identified) writer. Conclusion beyond a reasonable doubt, the candidate was the author Shakespeare.
