(223) Do you expect us to believe.....that the text parallels between Shakespeare, Marlowe and Sandys are accidental?

What does The Sandys-Text Parallels may mean ?

What that is all about?



George Sandys Travelbook
1615

-----------------------------------------------------

Prof.Jonathan Bate

                    
Stratfordian Shakespeare Expert Prof. Jonathan Bate dealt in his Shakespeare MOOC course (lesson 5-8 -Okt.2014) with Shakespeare's "Merchant of Venice".- He mentioned George Sandy‘s „Travel Book“ Book (1615) [„A relation of a Journey begun , An.Dom 1610“] with some very thoughtful remarks about the Jews..-

Unfortunately Prof.Bate  didn’t realize , that George Sandys cannot have been only a common (travel) book writer ,    but a poet and a type of Universal Genius with an impressive ability for free poetic translations from latin to english and  with  an immense knowledge, who must have written this text between between 1611-1615, a time when Shakspere , Stratford  (in his late forties) was still alive but is said to have already retired….

                   You will not expect us to believe that the amount of observed 


word and text parallelism 

                                        between Sandys and Shakespeare on the one hand,  
                                      and between Sandy’s and Marlowe on the other hand

                                                    are purely coincidental. 
 
What a pity, that Shakespeare expert Prof.Bate did not give an explanatory hint to us [the uninformed and ignorant] what that (the Text parallels) may mean and  what that is all about?
