When three experts disagree, two of them must be wrong. There is even the possibility that all three may be wrong. Professor Dover Wilson, Dr A. L. Rowse and Dr Leslie Hotson have each advanced a totally different theory on the question of Shakespeare's Sonnets. Which of them are we to believe? In a vexed question like this there is only one course open and that is to decide for ourselves, according to the best of our judgement and ability, and with a completely open mind. This has been the author's approach to the problem of Shakespeare's Sonnets. He claims no special authority beyond some fifty years of thought and research, althopugh it will will be impossible for the experts to refute the classical evidence which he adduces for his theory. This raises the interpretation of many of Shakespeare's Sonnets to a spiritual and mystical level, instead of abasing them to the strictly personal. perhaps, if ghosts could make acknowledgement, the companionable shades of Ovid and Horace would have more cause than that of of an Elizabethan playboy to glow with delight at having been recognised as the real source of inspiration for some of the most inspiration for some of the most beautiful philosophical poems in our language. This scarce book also includes a facsimile reproduction of the 1609 edition of the Sonnets and 'A Lover's Complaint' Ref DDD 1.
