Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a response to the inquiry into the genuineness of the manuscript corrections and certain Shakespearean documents published by J. Payne Collier. The author, N. E. S. A. Hamilton of the British Museum, presents an investigation into the perceived discrepancies between the Old Corrector's textual emendations and the historical record. Hamilton argues that the corrections were not made by an Old Corrector in the seventeenth century, as Collier asserts, but rather by Collier himself. The author also shares his belief that Collier possibly fabricated or tampered with other documents, such as the Bridgewater House papers and a State Paper Office petition, the latter of which was officially deemed spurious by a group of scholars and officials. Through linguistic and historical analysis, Hamilton attempts to prove that Collier's work is a hoax, and should be reevaluated within the context of Shakespearean literary scholarship.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines questionable alterations to the work of William Shakespeare as they appear in a corrected edition of the second Folio from 1632. The author, a palaeographer, meticulously inspected the volume and discovered anachronisms in the writing style and physical characteristics of its annotations, which suggested they were not made in the seventeenth century as had been claimed. The corrections were published in 1852 by John Payne Collier, with the claim they were made by an unknown old corrector soon after the Folio's initial publication. The author compares the published corrections to the physical evidence of the manuscript and concludes the alterations were a modern fabrication. An accompanying inquiry explores the questionable authenticity of other purportedly old documents Collier released around the same time. These revelations challenge prior assumptions about the texts of Shakespeare's plays and shed light on the history of literary forgery.
