SpectralMaliceX Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 Generally people from royal blood claim an royal did something good to make them seem more popular. As for Shakespeare not writing all those plays and sonnets your saying that evidence says it's impossible for him to have that knowledge, yet there is more evidence to say he did.

[/quote] I will give you that Francis Bacon had a lot of evidence towards him being the original writer, but Edward has had a lot of evidence and coincidences that lean towards him.

ListenToLife Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Who cares who they were written by? It doesn't affect anything. Whoever wrote it is dead, and if it wasn't shakespeare, then they chose to give the credit to Shakespeare. And that was their choice. Now does it really matter. I for one think it's Shakespeare.

Exiro Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 "W pewnym dalekim kraju był sobie... nie, nie tak. Teraz, w tym kraju, jest człowiek imieniem Werker. To wiem na pewno. Wiktor Werker, Wiktor Robotnik. Nie pytaj, skąd to wiem, bo tego nie wiem. Czy ma znaczenie, jak się nazywa? Czy każde stworzonko musi mieć imię? Czy Adolf Hitler mógł się nazywać Bubi Mauskopf? What's in a name?, pytał Szekspir. Wszystko - JHWH moim świadkiem. W Nowym Testamencie napisano, że we śnie ukazał się Józefowi anioł i oświadczył mu, że jego żona jest w ciąży z Duchem Świętym i urodzi mesjasza, który musi się nazywać Jezus. Wyobraź sobie, że Józef sprzeciwiłby się tej sugestii i nazwał dziecko Maurice - co by się wówczas stało z chrześcijaństwem? Nic. That's in a name! Za tę pyszałkowatą uwagę Szekspira pokarało już dawno, bo do dzisiaj utrzymują się teorie, że nigdy nie istniał, że nazywał się Francis Bacon lub Edward de Vere."

ListenToLife Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Yes, but it isn't exactly the most pressing debate, or important. Evolution vs Creationism and stuff like that are more urgent and important, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It always ends up in a flame war. And a debate does not have to be pressing in order to be a good debate. Shakespeare's authorship allows for a much more intelligent atmosphere with no problems as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ListenToLife Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 True. Not saying that it should become a religious debate, I'm just saying that there are more pressing debates out there. Nevermind. I'll leave anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 TBQH I think ignorance is bliss here and that whoever wrote the plays wrote them to be enjoyed, never to be questioned about their true identity. I do think Shakespeare did write them though as there is little convincing evidence that he didn't and even less that anyone else did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Amazing Avian Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Since I'm not of the upper class and am a tad more educated than most people in the same general area where I live, I think he did write them. It all boils down to the same argument that he was not of the upper class and therefore could not have had the vocabulary he had. I learned most of what I know because I find as much information as I can on topics that interest me, something a lot of people do. Of course Shakespeare would have done that too. His vocabulary is something he just picked up by reading a lot. [quote name='Exiro Divinus' timestamp='1350226362' post='6044216'] Shakespeare's plays were actually written by Francis Bacon. [/quote] Do you actually know who Francis Bacon is? He wrote essays. He did not write anything at all that had a story in it, just essays. Knowing that, do you still believe Bacon was capable of writing those plays? He wasn't. He had the proper educational background of course, but he lacked the creativity to write those plays.
