Perhaps the greatest playwright the world has ever known, was in reality a man named Edward Devere. He ran the Globe Theater. He was the Lord Great Chamberlain to Queen Elizabeth, and he secretly had a son who was the Third Earl of South Hampton. He was the rightful heir to the thrown, not King James VI of Scotland...providence?
You can find all this documented in two great works: the first is called 'Shakespeare Identified' and the author is J. Thomas Looney. The explosion of that book is called 'This Star Of England', written by Carlton and Dorothy Ogborn, in 1952. It's a 1200-page work, and in it they explain all the plays of Shakespeare, and that they are, in the words of Hamlet: "A brief abstract and chronicle of the times." Nothing but history.
And then there's another book, 'Wasn't Shakespeare Someone Else?', written by Ralph L. Tweedale, and in that book he evaluates the 150 sonnets. In those sonnets Edward Devere put his name: Vere or Uvre or Vere -- he puts his name in acrostics throughout all the sonnets. And the last couple sonnets he puts his name in double acrostics. It's amazing, showing that he wrote the sonnets.
