Excerpt from Hamlet's Note-Book
This, I felt, ended all. I withdrew the manu script, and was sadly content to let the matter go. But it appears that Mr. White had been of another mind. His literary executors have now put forth a posthumous volume, consisting of nine of his essays, and among them, to my indig nant surprise, carefully revised for publication by his own hand, I find the review from the Atlantic Monthly. It seems, therefore, that he had intended to give this injurious article all the perpetuity book-form can confer.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book argues that the authorship of Shakespeare's body of work should be attributed to Francis Bacon, a controversial claim that has been the subject of debate for centuries. The author delves into the history of this authorship controversy, examining the critical landscape that has ranged from ascribing the works to multiple authors to outright dismissing the theory of Bacon's authorship. The author presents evidence suggesting a connection between notes written by Bacon and phrases found in Shakespeare's plays, engaging with the ideas of critics who have found fault with this theory of authorship. Through analysis of the historical context of literary patronage and the nature of authorship during the Elizabethan period, the book challenges long-held assumptions about Shakespeare's authorship, asserting that these assumptions obscure more nuanced possibilities of collaborative authorship and intellectual exchange. In discussing the debate, the book broadens the scope of the inquiry beyond the question of singular authorship, offering thoughtful consideration of how different authors, including Bacon, might have contributed to the creation of works attributed to Shakespeare. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
