Oxfordian Jennifer Newton, SOF Webmaster and Media consultant, has organized a live video
webcast project for her website "Shakespeare Underground" together with Michael Delahoyde, Assoc.Prof., temporary employee of the Department of English at Washington State University. -
On three evenings in November 2014 (6, 13, and 20) live video webcasts had real-time discussion
via chat and a Q&A session for a live, interactive exploration into Shakespeare Questions. The first evening Nov.6. "The Shakespeare Hoax" dealt with the Shakespeare Authorship problem ( 9:00pm EST/6:00 pm PST) announced as : “The Shakespeare Hoax” lays out the authorship problem, demonstrating, with emphasis on visual materials, why it is indeed a problem: why Shakspere is not Shakespeare. The class proceeds into the history of attempts to explain the countless oddities and irreconcilable facts with recourse to putting forth other more qualified candidates who might have used the pen-name “Shake-speare.” And no cheesy “maybe we’ll never know” or “what does it really matter” will let anyone off the hook finally. |
For centuries, the question of Shakespeare's authorship has puzzled readers, scholars, and researchers. This blog presents a comprehensive solution: The Multi-Pseudonymity Theory (MPT). According to my extensive research, Christopher Marlowe — officially declared dead in 1593 — survived and continued to write under multiple pseudonyms.
